Scholarships for families
Could your family qualify for a Mississippi scholarship?
Households earning up to 300% of area median income may qualify. Applications are not open yet.
Who is eligible
Scholarships through MSEC are for K-12 students in households earning up to 300% of their area's median income.
What a scholarship covers
Scholarships help pay tuition and qualified education expenses at the student's school. MSEC pays the scholarship directly to the school. Families do not receive or handle scholarship funds.
Who gets priority
Federal rules give priority first to students who received a scholarship the year before, then to their siblings. After that, MSEC awards scholarships to other eligible students based on its scholarship criteria. A student who receives a scholarship has priority in later years.
Privacy
Applications go to MSEC, not to donors, and are handled confidentially. Applying is completely separate from giving.
