Maryland BOOST Scholarship Participating Schools by Town

Before you pick a school

The award: $1,200 to $4,750 in 2025-26, plus $3,000 for high school students. These are 2025-26 amounts. The advisory board sets new amounts each summer and had not posted 2026-27 figures in writing when we checked. The larger awards go to students coming from public school on free meals. Students receiving special education services got an extra award equal to their base award.
Who qualifies: Maryland students entering kindergarten through 12th grade whose household qualifies for free or reduced price school meals, enrolled or accepted at a participating nonpublic school. Pre-K is not eligible.
When to apply: The 2026-27 application ran March 9 to May 8, 2026 and is closed. The state keeps making offers as others decline until December 11, 2026. Expect a similar spring window for 2027-28.
Being on the list is not a seat. Ask each school whether it has room in your child's grade and what you would still owe after the award.
