The Student Financial Services Office within the Montana University System has announced it has offered Havre High School seniors Kane Gabrielsen and Christopher Gabrielsen the Montana University System Honor Scholarship.

The MUS Honor Scholarship is a renewable scholarship offered by the Montana Board of Regents that waives undergraduate tuition for up to eight semesters at any campus of the Montana University System or Dawson, Flathead Valley or Miles community colleges.

Students offered this scholarship must be graduates of an accredited Montana high school with a minimum grade point average of 3.4 at the end of their 7th semester in high school, take either the ACT or SAT standardized test, meet college preparatory requirements, and attend an eligible campus.

In 2007, the Board of Regents authorized a statewide high school competition based on a GPA ranking score combined with an ACT composite score creating a total MUS Honor Scholarship composite score from which students offered the scholarship were selected. This year 249 scholarships were offered statewide, the following students in your area have been offered a MUS Honor Scholarship.
