Maryland plans ambitious student aid program overhaul
A Maryland plan would replace the current state scholarship with a Free State Program promising college aid to middle school students who meet high school completion and drug free pledges. The program targets based on need, expands eligibility to about 13,800 students, and requires students to fund part of college costs with Pell grants and personal funds. It would phase in over four years, with most costs starting in 1995 and a potential $3,000 maximum grant for low and middle income students.
