Baton Rouge, LA (June 1, 2024) – The Louisiana Office of Student Financial Assistance (LOSFA) has announced that applications for the #MJFosterPromise Program will open this Saturday, June 1st. This initiative aims to provide financial aid to Louisiana residents seeking to pursue postsecondary education in high-demand fields.
The #MJFosterPromise Program is designed to support students in achieving their educational and career goals, especially in sectors critical to the state’s economic growth. The program targets adults who are 21 years or older and are pursuing a credential, associate degree, or industry-based certification in fields such as healthcare, technology, and skilled trades.
To qualify, applicants must be Louisiana residents, meet income requirements, and be enrolled in an eligible program at a Louisiana public two-year college or approved proprietary school. The program will cover the cost of tuition, fees, and other associated expenses, reducing the financial burden on students and enabling them to focus on their studies.
Prospective students and their families are encouraged to visit the LOSFA website for more information about eligibility criteria, the application process, and the benefits of the #MJFosterPromise Program. Interested individuals can access the application and detailed guidelines at mylosfa.la.gov.
“We are thrilled to open applications for the #MJFosterPromise Program and provide this opportunity for our residents to further their education and improve their career prospects,” said a LOSFA spokesperson. “This program reflects our commitment to investing in the future of Louisiana’s workforce and helping our citizens achieve their full potential.”
Applicants are encouraged to apply early as funds are limited and will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. The opening of the application window marks a significant step in LOSFA’s ongoing efforts to enhance educational access and support economic development across Louisiana.
