Step 3: Gather Supporting Documents
Before you begin your New Scholar Part 2 Application with Pontiac Promise Zone, you first need to fill out the following information, and have the documents available to you:
- FAFSA Application, including confirmation letter. To get started, please go to www.fafsa.gov and complete the form. Once you have your confirmation letter from your FAFSA, you can continue. If you are a DACA student, you do not have to submit an online FAFSA form. You can complete a paper form and mail it to the Pontiac Promise Zone.
- TIP (Tuition Incentive Program) letter. If you are a Tuition Incentive Program recipient, please gather your confirmation documents for that program first. For more information on TIP, please visit their website here.
- High School Transcript. This transcript must be YOUR transcript. To access your transcript, please contact your school counselor or follow your school’s instructions for accessing it.
- Proof of Acceptance. You will need to provide your acceptance letter from an accredited Michigan university/college, trade, technical school, certificate or apprenticeship program. This requires you to apply and gain admission to one of these organizations before you begin filling out your application.
- First Semester Tuition Bill. You need to download your first semester tuition bill from your educational institution. Please be sure all additional financial awards are clearly shown on the bill.
- Class Schedule. You will need to provide the first semester class schedule before we can consider you for financial assistance.
