LAKE COUNTY — Local students have been offered the Montana University System Honor Scholarship.
Locally, the following students were offered scholarships: Polson High School: Claire Bick, Lauren Dupuis, Jaylin Kenney, Isak Petersen and Carlton Sisler; Charlo High School: Trinceton Brown, Connor Daugherty, Mackenzie Foust and Tonya Hertz; Ronan High School: Tyler Sassaman.
The MUS Honor Scholarship averages $16,000 each and is a renewable scholarship offered by the Montana Board of Regents that waives undergraduate tuition for up to eight semesters at any campus of the Montana University System or Dawson, Flathead Valley, or Miles community colleges.
Students offered this scholarship must be graduates of an accredited Montana high school with a minimum grade point average of 3.4 at the end of their 7th semester in high school, take either the ACT or SAT standardized test, meet college preparatory requirements, and attend an eligible campus.
The award is based on a GPA ranking score combined with an ACT composite score creating a total MUS Honor Scholarship composite score, from which students offered the scholarship were selected. This year 247 scholarships were offered statewide.
