These scholarships are awarded to full-time STEM majors who are
considering working for NASA or other aerospace-related careers.
Applicants must be Maryland residents (or graduates of a MD high school)
and U.S. citizens. Eligibility requirements also include a 3.0 GPA or
better. A record of community service is preferred. Awards are
typically in the $2k-$5k range and must be used for educational expenses
(tuition, books, fees, and room and board). The award is for one year
and is renewable annually.
Historically, relatively few students have applied for the scholarship,
so it is worth your while to apply if the scholarship seems appropriate
for you.
