Treasurer Fitch also announced the next opportunity for Mississippi residents to win MACS scholarships, at the MHSAA State Football Championships in Oxford, Mississippi on December 1 and 2, 2017.
“Every dollar saved is a dollar less that you may have to borrow to help your children get a college degree,” said Treasurer Fitch, Chair of the College Savings Mississippi Board. “We are pleased to be able to offer scholarship opportunities throughout the year to help Mississippians save for their children’s future. These events are also great opportunities to remind people that it is never too early or too late to save for the future.”
