New Large Education Major Scholarship

The Maryland Higher Education Commission (MHEC) is accepting applications for a great new scholarship for Education majors.

  • The scholarship award is equivalent to 100% of the annual tuition, mandatory fees, and room and board.
  • The scholarship includes a Service Obligation that requires recipients to teach in low income public schools in Maryland.  At least 50% of the students in the public school must be eligible for free or reduced price meals (FRPM).  Undergraduate students must teach in these schools for 1 year for each year that they receive the scholarship and graduate students must teach in these schools for at least 2 years.
  • Students who don’t fulfill these teaching requirements must repay all of these scholarship funds with interest.

Minimum Eligibility Criteria Include:

  • Undergraduate or Graduate teaching majors
  • Maryland residency
  • Minimum 3.3 GPA

For full details, see the Teaching Fellows for Maryland Scholarship Program.
