2013 House Bill 4006

Revise state college scholarships

Introduced in the House

Jan. 9, 2013

Introduced by Rep. Dian Slavens (D-21)

To convert the former “Michigan Promise” college scholarship program into a $4,000 refundable income tax credit program (meaning that a beneficiary gets a check for the amount the credit exceeds his or her income tax liability). The credits would be granted after getting a two year associates degree, completing an approved two year vocational program or after getting a four year bachelors degree, within 10 years of completing high school.
