Free Maine Community College!
Boothbay Region High school graduates from the classes of 2023, 2024, and 2025 (or recent students who earned the equivalent of a high school diploma, like a GED or HiSET) can attend Maine community colleges tuition-free. The free college program provides 100% of tuition and mandatory fees after the application
of other federal and state grant aid for students at Maine’s seven community colleges. Note that it does not cover books and supplies, housing, transportation, or other additional non‐mandatory fees. A BRSAF grant may be able to help with this unmet need. Information about Maine free community college program and eligibility can be found at https://www.mccs.me.edu/freecollege/.
