Scholarships and Financial Aid

The process of applying for aid can seem complicated and time consuming. We want to make it go as smoothly as possible for you.

UPDATE: FAFSA Submission Summaries (previously known as Student Aid Reports) are now available within 1-3 days after FAFSA submission.

If you have received your FAFSA Submission Summary:

• Check it and make any necessary corrections.
• Once CSM has it, we will send you further information.

If you have not submitted your FAFSA yet, be sure to do so as soon as possible!

Even if you think you don’t qualify for financial aid or don’t meet the priority deadline, you must complete the FAFSA to apply for scholarships through Scholarship Finder at CSM. The Maryland aid priority deadline has been extended to May 15, 2024.

Types of Aid

For Continuing Education Students

Financial assistance is available through the CSM Foundation for all eligible students enrolled in selected workforce training courses.

A limited amount of financial assistance is available on a first-come, first-served basis to those who meet certain criteria. Scholarships do not include the cost of books or outside expenses. Scholarships are based on funding availability.
