MITS Annual Scholarship
Support - Trust - Goals
Since 2018, MITS has been giving back to our communities through four tuition-free scholarships to outstanding candidates who need assistance.
In 2020, we received a large number of applications and the quality of the submissions was impressive. The personal statements and the letters of recommendation we read were truly inspiring.
Thank you, everyone!
