ANN ARBOR ? The Great Lakes Renewable Energy Association is offering at least ten $500 scholarships at the Michigan Energy Fair in June at the Ingham County Fairgrounds in Mason.

The scholarships will be awarded by lottery draw selection, not based on need, merit or other affiliation. All graduating high school seniors who will be attending a college or university in the State of Michigan and plan to major in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) field, renewable energy, energy efficiency, environment or other related fields are eligible for nomination. The student will simply need to be nominated by a STEM teacher. Each teacher may nominate one student.

The scholarships will be drawn by GLREA representatives June 28 at the Michigan Energy Fair. Students need to be present to win. There will be a maximum of one nomination per teacher and a maximum award of one scholarship per student.

Nominations will be accepted at GLREA.Org
