Posted By: S. Moore on March 01, 2023 ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland HBCU's will receive a total of $3 million in grants over the next four years for the BGE Scholars Program. Governor Wes Moore was joined by BGE CEO Carim Khouzami and leaders from Bowie State University, Coppin State University and Morgan State University to announce the grants. The purpose of the grants is to provide funding for scholarships to Maryland students. The goal is to help reduce students' higher education debt and to help pay off unexpected expenses. “This $3 million investment from BGE to students studying at Morgan State, Coppin State, and Bowie State is centered on a priority that is crucial to the long-term competitiveness of our state: and that’s STEM education,” said Governor Wes Moore. “These scholarships will help provide our students with some of the financial security they need to complete their degrees, and innovative research opportunities in the classroom that will set them up for success in their future careers. This effort pushes forward our administration’s goal to build a more equitable state, where no one is left behind.” Each school will receive $1 million to spread over the next four years.
