The NDMU Promise

The Promise Grant Program is a financial aid program that provides the University funding to students who have a financial need after completing the FAFSA. The program seeks to bridge the gap between the grants provided by the state and federal governments and NDMU’s tuition.

We anticipate that 2026-2027 admitted students from Maryland with an SAI of $0 or less, will receive a promise grant package equal to their full tuition. Unlike a loan, the student will not have to pay this money pack.

To be considered for the program, students must file their FAFSA as soon as possible.

Promise Grant is capped at the initial award amount, which will not adjust with annual tuition increases. The University reserves the right to fund this scholarship using various sources of funding, and changes to the funding source may be made at the University's discretion in accordance with its Financial Aid awarding policies. Students will be notified of any changes made to their financial aid award.
