    • The scholarship requires paid membership in an organization (with certain exceptions for reputable trade organizations and others)
    • Student are required to sign up for a site or service to apply*
    • The scholarship seems primarily used for lead generation** or idea harvesting purposes***

    • The scholarship or scholarship providing organization seem untrustworthy
    • There is no evidence the scholarship was previously awarded
    • The scholarship has not been awarded in the past 12 months

    ** Lead generation scholarships will require students to sign up for an app or website and require minimal (if any) application requirements.
    ***Idea harvesting scholarships will require students to submit blog posts or other materials that companies may use for marketing purposes.

    Maryland residents who have spent time in foster care and are looking to pursue higher education, you've come to the right place. The Maryland Education and Training Voucher (ETV) Scholarship was established to provide "financial, academic, and human support for young adults who’ve left the foster care system and are enrolled in qualified colleges, universities, or vocational education programs." To qualify for the scholarship, students must have either been in foster care until age 18 or left foster care after their 16th birthday because they were adopted or placed in kinship guardianship. They must also be under the age of 26, have personal assets worth less than $10,000, and be enrolled in a degree, certificate, or other accredited program, and show that they are making satisfactory academic progress. However, bear in mind that students must apply for Maryland ETV for the first time before their 21st birthday. To continue receiving the scholarship, Maryland ETV recipients must maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA each academic term. If you sound like a fit for this scholarship, we encourage you to apply! But don't stop there - there are many other Maryland scholarships and scholarships for adopted and foster children available through Scholarships360.

    How to win Maryland scholarships

    Maryland has rich historical significance, as it was one of the original 13 colonies and played a crucial role in the American Revolution. Additionally, Maryland is home to large vibrant cities such as Baltimore, several prestigious research universities, and a very unique geography with its charming Eastern Shore.

    In order to win Maryland scholarships, you need to be yourself! This means searching for scholarships that align with your passions and career goals. Once you find these scholarships, you should then respond to scholarship essay questions by highlighting how Maryland helped you reach your goals and determine your future.

    For example, if you grew up fascinated with the history of Maryland, it may come as no surprise that you want to pursue a career teaching history. Therefore, make it known in your scholarship application that your firsthand experiences growing up in Maryland allowed you to realize your history passion. Make sure to emphasize that you wouldn’t be who you are without Maryland! Connecting your uniqueness to the uniqueness of Maryland will make you stand out in Maryland scholarship applications.

    Writing resources for writing Maryland scholarship essays

    Consider in-state tuition and tuition reciprocity 

    In-state tuition allows residents of a state to receive cheaper tuition for a college or university in their state. Additionally, many universities and colleges reserve scholarships and financial aid for in-state students, which helps reduce the cost of attending college for those who live there.

    Here are a few well-known Maryland universities and their in-state vs out-of-state tuition costs:

    University of Maryland

    • In-state tuition: $9,889
    • Out-of-state tuition: $38,690

    Towson University

    • In-state tuition: $11,306
    • Out-of-state tuition: $28,326

    How do you get in-state tuition in Maryland? 

    Having Maryland residency significantly reduces the cost of tuition for Maryland colleges and universities. In order to become a Maryland resident for tuition purposes you will have to meet the following nine criteria:

    • Owning or renting while continuously occupying living quarters in Maryland
    • Having substantial personal property in Maryland
    • Paying Maryland income tax
    • Registering all vehicles in Maryland
    • Possessing a valid Maryland driver’s license
    • Receiving no public assistance from a state other than Maryland
    • Having the legal ability under law to live permanently and without interruption in Maryland
    • Rebutting the presumption that you are to live in Maryland primarily to attend an educational institution

    Does Maryland offer tuition reciprocity?

    Maryland is a member of the Academic Common Market, which is a tuition reciprocity agreement among select Southern states. If a public institution in Maryland does not offer a degree program major (undergraduate or graduate) that you intend on pursuing, you can then attend at a participating ACM out-of-state tuition at in-state tuition rates.
