MiSSG

Will the Michigan Achievement Scholarship Minimum Award and Michigan Achievement Scholarship Last-dollar Award be tracked separately?

Yes, the Michigan Achievement Scholarship Minimum Award and Michigan Achievement Scholarship Last-dollar Award will be tracked separately in MiSSG.
Does the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) have to be completed and verified if required?

To be eligible for Michigan Achievement Scholarship, the FAFSA must be completed and verified if required. Subsequent Institutional Student Information Records (ISIR) will be loaded into MiSSG.
How do institutions provide proof of high school completion?

If proof of high school completion cannot be provided through Center for Educational Performance and Information (CEPI) in MiSSG, then the institutions will need to verify high school completion with a copy of a diploma, certificate of completion, or its equivalency and update the status in MiSSG.
If a student’s record becomes complete later in the academic year, due to verification, can we certify the award for previously enrolled semester(s)?

Yes, the student can be awarded after verification is completed during the same academic year.
Will institutions receive a roster of Michigan Achievement Scholarship eligible students in MiSSG?

Currently, there is an Activity Report available in MiSSG indicating a list of students who meet the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) criteria. Additional functions and reports will become available in the future.
Will MiSSG be monitoring the 15-month timeframe for enrollment?

Yes, MiSSG will track the 15-month timeframe for enrollment.
