  • Tuition Incentive Program Fact Sheet Academic Year 2010-11
    Michigan Department of Treasury 3981 (10/10) Tuition Incentive Program Fact Sheet Academic Year 2010-11 Description The Tuition Incentive Program (TIP) is an incentive program that encourages eligible students to complete high school by providing tuition assistance for the first two years of college and beyond. To meet the financial eligibility requirement, a student must have (or have had) Medicaid coverage for 24 months within a 36-consecutive-month period as identified by the Michigan Department of Human Services (DHS). TIP provides assistance in two phases. Phase I covers tuition and mandatory fee charges for eligible students enrolled in a credit-based associate degree or certificate program at a participating Michigan community college, public university, degree-granting independent college, federal tribally-controlled college, or Focus: HOPE. Phase II provides a maximum of $2,000 total tuition assistance for credits earned in a four-year program at an in-state, degree-granting college or university. Award parameters are subject to legislative changes. Application Students are identified by DHS as having met the Medicaid eligibility requirement. Students may be identified as TIP eligible as early as sixth grade, using the 36-month period immediately preceding enrollment in the sixth grade. Medicaid eligibility prior to that 36-month period is not counted. After being identified, the Office of Scholarships and Grants (OSG) will send the student an acceptance form. The student must then complete the acceptance form and return it to OSG before graduation from high school or GED completion1 and before their 20th birthday to activate financial eligibility for the program.
