Going to community college will be free for many Maryland residents next year. Gov. Larry Hogan signed a bill that covers tuition costs at community colleges for qualifying residents. The legislation was approved near the end of 2018's legislative session. It will create a $15 million program to provide scholarships of up to $5,000 to students from families earning less than $125,000 a year. Single adults earning less than $90,000 also would be eligible for the money.
To qualify, prospective students must enroll in a Maryland community college within two years of finishing high school or obtaining a GED. Students would have to take 12 credit hours and have a high school GPA of at least 2.3.
