Maricopa Promise Scholarship
The Maricopa Promise Scholarship provides every eligible student attending Maricopa Community Colleges with wraparound support services and a $600 stipend to cover the cost of attendance over four consecutive semesters.
Awarded to students each semester, the $600 stipend provides a pathway to making college more affordable at a time when the high cost of college continues to strain students and their families. The four semesters of consecutive support give students the strong foundation they need to pursue their goals.
Eligible students attending any of the 10 colleges are welcome to apply for the scholarship for the Fall 2025 term, which begins August 23.
