This year’s number of scholarships is higher than usual as we are catching up after several years without any awards. We have restructured the scholarship program from previous years.
The University of Michigan sends our club a roster of eligible students from Oregon or SW Washington (Clark, Cowlitz, and Skamania counties). Those students then receive an email inviting them to apply. For questions, please reach out to the local alumni club e-mail address at [email protected]. Good luck and Go Blue!
