Earlier this fall, we blogged about the University of Missouri opening up two underrepresented minority scholarships to Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders, after hearing from the Pacific Islander Access project.
Today we are pleased to announce more good news: the University of Missouri has announced that a third underrepresented minority program -- their sought after Transition Grant -- is also open to Pacific Islanders. This is a highly competitive grant program for underrepresented minority students who are Missouri State residents. Recipients receive $2,500 per year, with renewal for up to three years. We inquired with the University after hearing great feedback from many of you on the institution's decision to open up their other underrepresented minority programs.
Students and parents can learn more by visiting this page on the grant program: LINK
And of course -- mahalo to the University of Missouri for choosing to include Pacific Islanders!
