Mike and Michelle Van Dyke Family Scholarship

Mike and Michelle Van Dyke believe strongly that education brings hope for a bright future and a Christian education brings eternal hope. They have been blessed by God and want to bring this hope to others who could not otherwise afford a Christian college education. Potter’s House Christian School holds a special place in their hearts because of the Kingdom work it does in the heart of Grand Rapids. The Van Dykes have found these students to be impressive—confident, well-educated and polite, and these students capture their hearts every time they meet them. It is their hope to encourage graduates of Potter’s House to attend Calvin University.

Basic criteria:

  • entering freshman, sophomore, junior or senior year
  • cumulative GPA of 2.00 or higher
  • graduate of Potter’s House Christian High School in Grand Rapids, MI
  • financial need as defined by government programs is required
  • if no student from Potter’s House Christian School meets the above criteria, then second preference may be given to a graduate of Grand Rapids University Preparatory Academy. Third preference may be given to a graduate of the Grand Rapids Public Schools.

Renewal criteria: This scholarship is automatically renewable if the scholarship criteria continues to be met. Renewal is subject to funding availability.
