Re-enrollment Services Grant

Funding to Support Adult Re-enrollment and Student Success

This grant funding supports public and Tribal institutions of higher education in Michigan in implementing sustainable solutions to addressing adult re-enrollment.

Outreach and personalized coaching can help returning students build confidence, understand available supports, and persist to completion.
