Welcome to the Senatorial Scholarship Application process, an initiative proudly presented by Senator Chris West to support the educational aspirations of residents within the 42nd Legislative District of Maryland.

Application Requirements: To apply, submit the completed application form, your most recent transcript, three letters of recommendation (academic or professional), a copy of your FAFSA’s Student Aid Report or the MSFAA Summary Report, and if you are a high school student, your SAT/ACT scores.

It's important to understand that the Senatorial Scholarship is primarily intended for students attending educational institutions within Maryland. The scholarship aims to support our state's educational establishments and, in turn, our local students. However, I recognize that some academic paths may lead out of state. Therefore, if your chosen major is not offered within Maryland, you must secure unique major status from the Maryland Higher Education Commission. This status is a prerequisite for receiving our scholarship for studies at out-of-state institutions. Without this unique major status, I am unable to award scholarships for attendance at non-Maryland schools.

Deadline: April 1, 2026
