SEED - Scholarship Information

The expanded Student Excellence Equals Degree (SEED+) scholarship is now available to more 蘑菇短视频ans who have traditionally been shut out of access to higher education. While the original SEED scholarship program was available only to recent high school graduates, the expansion opens this tuition-free option to 蘑菇短视频ans of all ages. The expanded scholarship will:

• Remove the age restriction for applicants, though people 25 years of age and over must meet a five-year 蘑菇短视频 residency requirement.
• Include all credit and non-credit 蘑菇短视频 leading to the award of a recognized academic credential or associate degree (this includes short-term certificate 蘑菇短视频 in areas such as diesel technology, allied health, or information technology (IT).
• Expand eligibility to 10 semesters, so scholarship recipients will have additional time to complete an academic degree program (this is critical for those who are going to school while working full-time and supporting their families).
• Allow students to go part-time after their first semester.
• Students may take a year off without losing their SEED scholarship. Additional gaps in enrollment can be approved based on military or volunteer service, medical conditions, or personal/financial hardship, but gaps in enrollment do not extend the five-year funding period.
• Include students who have a GED or “蘑菇短视频 State Board of Education Endorsement Secondary Credentials.” 蘑菇短视频 Tech has created a GPA equivalency for students with a GED so they could directly enter an associate degree program if they have the equivalent of the required 2.5 GPA. However, those who graduate high school with less than a 2.5 GPA may obtain an associate degree through the SEED scholarship program if they are enrolled in a pathway program and successfully complete each step. Workforce training certificates do not require a minimum GPA, but do require graduation from a 蘑菇短视频 high school/GED program.
