There’s still time to invest in college with the Michigan Achievement Scholarship

Imagine for a moment that you’re shopping for a new washing machine. You’ve narrowed down your options to two choices: a used washing machine for $300, or a brand new model for $1,000. You’ve run the numbers, and in the long term, the $1,000 machine is a better investment. It uses less water and less electricity. It will last longer and need less maintenance. Over the years, it will save you literally thousands of dollars versus the $300 option.

But it doesn’t matter unless you have $1,000 to spend. When budgets are tight, it’s easy to pick the more affordable option and kick the consequences down the road.

Ryan Fewins-Bliss, executive director of Michigan College Access Network
Ryan Fewins-Bliss, executive director of Michigan College Access Network

Michigan College Access Network has been working to improve college attainment in our state for over a decade, and lately it has felt a little bit like selling a $1,000 washing machine. The data continue to show that college is a solid investment. Lifetime earnings for associate degree holders are, on average, $400,000 more than someone who stops formal education after high school. For bachelor degree holders, that jumps to $1 million more.

I could feed you statistics all day that show college is worth the investment in the long run, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t have the money to get started. Graduating students and their families are getting sticker shock from the rising costs of college. They’re hearing stories about people who are still saddled with student loan debt decades after graduation. Affordability is the number one barrier to students enrolling in, persisting through and completing college degrees and certificates.

There is help on the way, though. The new Michigan Achievement Scholarship is a bipartisan commitment to our students, and it’s changing the conversation around college affordability. Starting with the class of 2023, Michigan students can get up to $27,500 over five years to pay for postsecondary education at an in-state institution. Despite having “achievement” in the name, eligibility is based on financial need, and an estimated four out of five college-going students will qualify.

If you have a 2023 high school graduate in your household, you’ve probably heard about the FAFSA, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. For thousands of Michigan families, the FAFSA is the gateway to a debt-free college education. It’s the only way to access the Michigan Achievement Scholarship, as well as Pell Grants — federal money for college that does not need to be repaid — and institutional aid. It’s not too late to complete the FAFSA and see how much money your student could qualify for, but many colleges and universities are already awarding financial aid, so the sooner students can file the FAFSA, the more opportunities will be available. Students and families can learn more about the Michigan Achievement Scholarship and get FAFSA completion tips at getmimoney.org.

When I visit communities around the state, I often hear some version of “not everyone needs a four-year degree.” I agree! We need more people with bachelor’s degrees, but we also need more people with associate degrees and certificates to work in critical infrastructure, information technology, clean energy and other emerging fields. The Michigan Achievement Scholarship offers pathways for public colleges and universities (up to $5,500 per year), private colleges and universities (up to $4,000 per year) and community and tribal colleges (up to $2,750 per year). By offering multiple pathways, this scholarship gives students the flexibility to pursue a degree or certificate at an institution that fits their lifestyle and their career goals. Not every graduating student must go to college to have a fulfilling career, but every student should have the option to pursue their dreams through an affordable postsecondary education.

Increasing college attainment is key to Michigan’s future prosperity. Michigan has set a goal of Sixty by 30 — 60 percent of Michigan residents having a postsecondary degree or certificate by 2030 — to meet the demands of the modern economy and build stronger communities. College graduates invest more in local businesses, need less government assistance and are more civically involved. Students who use the Michigan Achievement Scholarship will graduate with less debt, which means more money they can spend on housing, vehicles and raising a family.

The time for stopgap measures and $300 washing machines is over — it’s time to go big for our students’ futures and make a lasting investment. The Michigan Achievement Scholarship is changing the math on college affordability, and that means a brighter future for all Michiganders.

Ryan Fewins-Bliss is executive director of Michigan College Access Network, a nonprofit dedicated to increasing college readiness, participation and completion in Michigan, particularly among low-income students, first-generation college-going students and students of color.

Aún está a tiempo de invertir en estudios universitarios con The Michigan Achievement Scholarship

Imagine por un instante que está por comprar una nueva máquina lavadora, y sus opciones se reducen a dos: una máquina lavadora usada por $300, o un modelo nuevo por $1,000. Usted hizo las cuentas, y en el largo plazo, la máquina de $1,000 es una mejor inversión. Utiliza menos agua y menos electricidad. Durará más tiempo y necesita menos mantenimiento. Con los años, le ahorrará literalmente miles de dólares en comparación con la opción de $300.

Pero eso no importa, a menos que tenga $1,000 para gastar. Cuando el presupuesto es ajustado, es fácil escoger la opción más asequible e ignorar las consecuencias.

Michigan College Access Network lleva más de una década trabajando para mejorar el logro universitario en nuestro estado, y últimamente parece que quisiera vender una máquina lavadora de $1,000. Los datos siguen demostrando que los estudios universitarios son una inversión sólida. Las ganancias de por vida para los diplomados o graduados de carreras técnicas son, en promedio, $400,000 más que alguien que acaba su educación formal luego de la escuela secundaria. Para los licenciados, ese monto asciende a $1 millón más.

Podría llenar todo su día con estadísticas que demuestren que invertir en la universidad vale la pena en el largo plazo, pero eso no importa si no tiene el dinero para comenzar. Los estudiantes que se gradúan y sus familias sufren el impacto de los crecientes costos de los estudios universitarios. Escuchan historias acerca de personas que siguen afrontando deudas por los préstamos estudiantiles aún décadas después de su graduación. La asequibilidad es la principal barrera para que los estudiantes se inscriban en, sean persistentes con y completen sus títulos y certificados universitarios.

Sin embargo, hay una ayuda disponible. La nueva Michigan Achievement Scholarship es un compromiso bipartidario con nuestros estudiantes, y está cambiando el discurso sobre la asequibilidad para la universidad. A partir de la clase de 2023, los estudiantes de Michigan pueden obtener hasta $27,500 en cinco años para pagar su educación posterior a la escuela secundaria en una institución dentro del estado. A pesar de que el nombre incluye la expresión “rendimiento académico” (achievement), la elegibilidad se basa en la necesidad financiera, y aproximadamente cuatro de cinco futuros estudiantes universitarios calificarán.

Si tiene un graduado de la escuela secundaria en 2023 en su hogar, probablemente haya oído hablar del formulario FAFSA®, Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes. Para miles de familias de Michigan, FAFSA es la puerta de acceso a una educación universitaria sin deudas. Es la única forma de acceder a The Michigan Achievement Scholarship, así como los subsidios de las Becas Pell; dinero federal para la universidad que no hay que devolver, y la asistencia institucional. No es demasiado tarde para completar el formulario FAFSA y ver para cuánto dinero calificaría su estudiante, pero como muchas universidades e instituciones ya están otorgando ayuda financiera, cuanto antes presenten el formulario FAFSA los alumnos, más oportunidades tendrán disponibles. Los estudiantes y sus familias pueden conocer más acerca de The Michigan Achievement Scholarship y obtener consejos para completar el formulario FAFSA en getmimoney.org.

Cuando visito las comunidades del estado, a menudo escucho algo así como “no todos necesitan un título de cuatro años”. ¡Estoy de acuerdo! Necesitamos más personas con licenciaturas, pero también con diplomados y certificados técnicos que trabajen en infraestructura crítica, informática, energía limpia y otros campos emergentes. The Michigan Achievement Scholarship ofrece vías de acceso a carreras profesionales para universidades e instituciones públicas (hasta $5,500 por año), universidades e instituciones privadas (hasta $4,000 por año) y colegios comunitarios y tribales (hasta $2,750 por año). Al ofrecer múltiples vías de acceso a carreras profesionales, esta beca les da a los estudiantes la flexibilidad de perseguir un título o certificado en una institución que se adapte a su estilo de vida y a sus metas profesionales. No todos los alumnos que se gradúan deben ir a la universidad para alcanzar un título gratificante, pero cada estudiante debería tener la opción de perseguir sus sueños a través de una educación superior a la escuela secundaria que sea asequible.

Aumentar el logro universitario es clave para la prosperidad futura de Michigan. Michigan ha establecido la meta de Sixty by 30; es decir, el 60 por ciento de los residentes de Michigan tendrán un título o certificado superior a la escuela secundaria para 2030, para satisfacer las demandas de la economía moderna y construir comunidades más sólidas. Los graduados universitarios invierten más en los negocios locales, necesitan menos asistencia del gobierno y tienen una mayor participación cívica. Los estudiantes que usan The Michigan Achievement Scholarship se graduarán con menos deudas, lo que significa que podrán gastar más dinero en vivienda, en vehículos y en criar una familia.

La etapa de las medidas provisionales y las máquinas lavadoras de $300 se terminó; es hora de dar lo mejor por el futuro de nuestros estudiantes y de realizar una inversión duradera. The Michigan Achievement Scholarship está cambiando el concepto de la asequibilidad para la universidad, y eso significa un futuro más brillante para todos los residentes de Michigan.

Ryan Fewins-Bliss es director ejecutivo de Michigan College Access Network, una entidad sin fines lucrativos dedicada a aumentar la preparación para los estudios universitarios, la participación y la compleción en Michigan, particularmente entre los estudiantes de bajos ingresos, la primera generación de universitarios y los alumnos de color.
