Requirements: attended and graduated from a Maryland secondary school, parent/guardian filed Maryland income tax returns for 3+ years, registered within 6 years of graduation. Students must first attend a community college for 60 credits or earn an associate's degree before transferring to a 4-year institution with in-state tuition.
