FREE COLLEGE
Students who receive a H.O.P.E. Scholarship are eligible for two free years of Lansing Community College tuition. The H.O.P.E. Scholarship also provides free textbooks. For additional information, such as requirements and responsibilities, see FAQ's on the home page of the H.O.P.E. Scholarship Program web site. Lansing Community College is a great place to receive your college education for a variety of reasons. With classes much smaller than the average four year institution, students receive individual time with instructors who are capable of leading classes for universities all over the World. Classes are available at night, during the weekends, over the Internet, or even at Distance Learning Centers closer to home to accommodate even the busiest of students attending LCC. For more information on the opportunities available at LCC, feel free to check out their website at www.lcc.edu.
Each year the H.O.P.E. Scholarship Program will accept 500 new students into the program.
Scholarship positions are allocated to Lansing schools on the basis of a composition ratio.
For example, a school that enrolls 30% of the City’s sixth grade population will receive 30% of the scholarship program positions.
Therefore, a school with a 30% ratio in a program of 500 will have a total of 150 scholarships to offer.
