The Maryland Higher Education Commission Senatorial Scholarship is offered to Maryland residents who plan to pursue a postsecondary credential full-time (12+ credits undergraduate or 9+ credits graduate per semester) or part-time (6-11 credits undergraduate or 6-8 credits graduate per semester) at a two-year or four-year Maryland college, university or private career school. All in-state majors are eligible. Award recipients may use this scholarship at an out-of-state school if their major is not available at any Maryland institution and if their legislator agrees. These scholarships are offered/awarded through your state delegation for your district, not through your federal delegation, which includes your U.S. Senators. Current or prospective students should contact their local Senator for instructions on how to apply. Applicants must be current high school seniors; or current or prospective full-time degree-seeking undergraduate or graduate students. A recipient is eligible to receive a renewal award for up to three years. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Maryland Higher Education Commission for more information.
