The scholarship assists early educators and after school/out-of-school-time professionals in pursuing graduate and undergraduate degrees at participating Massachusetts colleges and universities. Scholarship applicants may receive financial assistance up to 11 credits per semester in the fall, spring and summer (subject to funding availability).
