It received its present name by Chapter 59, Acts of 1964. It is governed by a board of twelve trustees appointed by the Governor for six-year terms. Having been an accredited junior college for many years, the College became a four-year college of liberal arts and sciences in September 1967. It granted its first baccalaureate degrees in June 1971, offering the Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Science degrees. Majors are possible in art, English, history, biology, and mathematics. Students may be trained in professional education which permits them to become fully certified as secondary school teachers in the State. St. Mary's College participates in three State scholarship programs and one grant-in-aid program also under State auspices. These pro- grams are only available to residents of the State of Maryland. The three scholarship programs consist of (1) General State Tuition Scholarships; (2) Teacher Education Scholarships; and (3) Legisla- tive Scholarships (generally known as "Senatorial" awards). These Senatorial awards are awarded annually on a basis of need to can- didates who have passed examinations conducted by the State Scholar- ship Board. The State grant-in-aid program provides assistance to war orphans. In addition to these State programs, the St. Mary's County Board of County Commissioners annually award four tuition scholarships to county residents attending the College (Code 1957, 1969 Repl. Vol., Art. 77, sees. 260, 282). St. Mary's College also par- ticipates in the NDEA Loan Program and the Economic Opportunity Grant Program sponsored by the United States government. NDEA Loans and Economic Opportunity Grants are obtained by applying directly to the College.
