The online application for the 2022-23 MHSAA Scholar-Athlete Award is now available.
For 34 years, the MHSAA and Farm Bureau Insurance have honored the best student-athletes in Michigan. Again, this year they will award 32 students with $2,000 scholarships based on achievement and leadership in athletics and activities, as well as responses to short-answer and essay questions. In many ways, this is the most prestigious honor of the MHSAA’s annual awards.
Seniors with an unrounded 3.50 or better GPA who have an earned a varsity letter in a MHSAA-sponsored sport are eligible to apply.
Students will fill out the entire application online, which includes applicant background info, short-answer questions and essays. Judges will also be reviewing and scoring applications online.
To begin the application process, here is what is needed…
- Students should go to mhsaa.com/scholarship to start the application process.
- Once there, create an account.
- Finally, students will need to enter an Access Code. CONTACT MR. TISEO (atiseo@mapsnet.org) TO RECEIVE THE ACCESS CODE.
At this point, students can start to fill out the different parts of the application. If they leave the application, they will pick up where they left off when they return. Students also need two letters of recommendation. Students can upload PDFs or Word docs themselves, or they can use the system to have recommenders upload recommendations themselves. The deadline for applications is December 2, 2022 at 4:00 p.m.
