Scholarship Description
The number and size of the scholarships are determined annually by the MES Foundation Board of Directors.
Scholarships are awarded based on merit and financial need, with the goal of assisting students who might not otherwise continue their post-secondary education without the financial assistance. Scholarships are awarded on a renewable basis for up to 4 years (depending on the grade level of the student).

For over 25 years, MES Foundation (MES) provided student loan administration services, scholarship management, and college planning outreach to students and families across Maine. MES has worked tirelessly to expand access to higher education for all Maine students and to help them achieve success in their higher education goals. In 2015, MES made the decision to discontinue loan administration, college access, and outreach activities to focus solely on providing scholarships to Maine students. This change allowed us to significantly expand our scholarship offerings. To mark our shift in focus, we officially changed our name from Maine Education Services to MES Foundation in April 2016. MES is proud to have helped so many Maine students and families and we look forward to continued collaboration with many local schools and community organizations to help us spread the word about our valuable college scholarship opportunities.
