$1,000 Summer Enrichment Scholarships Available

$1,000 OHE Stipends for Minnesota Students

The Minnesota Office of Higher Education (OHE) is once again offering summer enrichment stipends on a first-come, first-served basis. These $1,000 stipends can be used to completely cover the cost of a summer program or can be applied toward a summer program costing over $1,000.

Who is eligible?
  • You must be a Minnesota resident, and
  • Eligible for free or reduced-price lunches, and
  • Currently in grades 3-11, and
  • If you are in grades 7-11, you must have an overall "C" average, or a C or above in a foreign language class.
What is the application process?

You must apply directly to the eligible summer program. The summer program will complete the online application for a stipend from the Summer Academic Enrichment Program. Funds will be processed and will go directly to the eligible summer program.
