Scholarship Information: Maryland Scholarships

Maryland Delegate and Senatorial Scholarships

The Maryland Delegate and Senatorial Scholarships are available to current high school seniors and full-time and part-time, degree-seeking undergraduate and graduate students in the state of Maryland. Students attending a private career school may also apply. Students attending an out-of-state institution may also be eligible if the student is pursuing a unique field of study not available in any college in Maryland. Students on an F1 visa are not eligible for this type of financial aid.
