Boozhoo! My name is Lara Gerhardson and I am the outreach liaison for the Minnesota Indian Scholarship Program with the Minnesota Office of Higher Education.

In my position with the scholarship program, I give financial aid presentations to high school students throughout the state with an emphasis on the MISP. My other primary role is as a point-of-contact for students who have been awarded the scholarship or are seeking further information on the MISP.

I am happy to have an office at the American Indian Resource Center and welcome you to drop by with any questions you may have for me or if you would like to chat. Office hours are on Thursday mornings from 9-12 and by appointment. I can be reached at: misp.lara@hotmail.com or, at 755-2557.

For more information on eligibility requirements and links to the MISP and other scholarship resources, visit our website at: www.getreadyforcollege.org/indianscholarship.

Have a great summer!
