2010 House Bill 5849

Create new state government college scholarship program

Introduced in the House

Feb. 18, 2010

Introduced by Rep. Jase Bolger (R-63)

To create a new state government college scholarship program to replace the “Promise Award” scholarships discontinued in the 2010 budget. This new program would require students to sign an agreement to stay in Michigan for at least five years after graduating, and seek to “claw back” payments that went to a recipient who leaves the state during that period.

Referred to the Committee on Education
