More than $91,000 was recently awarded through 105 student scholarships at M State. Three separate scholarship award ceremonies were held at the college’s Detroit Lakes, Moorhead and Wadena campuses on Nov. 28, 29 and 30 in celebration of the fall 2023 M State Foundation and Alumni scholarship recipients.

To be selected for a scholarship through M State Foundation and Alumni, students must be registered for nine or more credits and have a minimum grade point average of 2.0. In addition, the foundation has a review team that ranks recipients in order of greatest need, as determined by their scholarship application information.

“We are so proud of the students of M State for their commitment and dedication, and grateful for the generous support of our scholarship donors,” says Shannon Britten, Associate Director of Advancement and Development for the foundation. “These scholarships help pave the way for students to pursue their dreams.”

M State Foundation and Alumni provides financial support to the college’s Detroit Lakes, Moorhead and Wadena campuses, helping to ensure a success story for every M State student. It is one of two separate foundations that work on behalf of M State and its students: The other, Fergus Area College Foundation, supports the Fergus Falls campus.
