Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment Scholarship Application Now Open

The Missouri Department of Higher Education & Workforce Development is pleased to announce the Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment Scholarship application for the current Spring 2022 semester is now open. The application is available on the Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment for Students page on MDHEWD’s website. More information can be found here.

The priority deadline is Feb. 1, 2022, but applications will be accepted through April 1, 2022. Applications received between Feb. 1 and April 1 will be awarded based on available funding. In addition to submitting the electronic form, to complete the application students must also mail a copy of the page that shows the adjusted gross income from the most recent 1040 federal tax form for the parent or guardian that claimed them as a dependent for that tax year. The mailing address is provided on the electronic application.

Updated information about the scholarship, including a one-page flier that can be printed for distribution to students, is available on the Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment for Educators page on MDHEWD’s website. The flier is located in the Resources section of that page.
