LANSING MI (WKZO AM/FM) – As many as 100-thousand low-income Michiganders could be eligible for the state’s Tuition Incentive Program, or “TIP,” but are not enrolled because of outreach or operational hurdles.
Catherine Brown is co-author of a new report from the Institute for College Access & Success and the Century Foundation, which calls TIP a well-targeted college incentive program that could serve as a model for other communities.
She says one key reason is it covers full tuition and up to 500-dollars in fees, so it accounts for inflation in higher education.
More information on the program can be found at www.michigan.gov, and search for “student financial aid”.
