Are You Eligible to be a Worthington Scholar?
The Worthington Scholarship Foundation awards scholarships to qualifying Maine high school students pursuing an in-state post-secondary education, whether they are earning certificates, associate’s degrees, or bachelor’s degrees. Find out if you’re eligible below.
Eligibility Guidelines
To be eligible to apply for a Worthington scholarship, you must be a Maine resident and a graduating senior at one of our participating high schools with plans to enroll full-time at one of our partner colleges or universities.
To help ensure that these scholarships are accessible to students, we offer different eligibility criteria based on your education plans. Eligible students must have a high school GPA of C- or higher to be considered for a community college scholarship, and a high school GPA of B- or higher to be considered for a four-year college or university scholarship.
Finally, your expected family contribution (EFC) should be $15,000 or less, as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
