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, mathematics, and social science. The College is in the process of developing additional majors in human development, music, and natural science. Students may be trained in professional education which permits them to be 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 scholarship programs consist of (1) General State Tuition Scholar- ships; and (2) Legislative Scholarships (generally known as "Sena- torial" awards). These Senatorial awards are awarded annually on a basis of need to candidates who have passed examinations con- ducted by the State Scholarship Board. The State grant-in-aid pro- gram provides assistance to war orphans. In addition to these State programs, the St. Mary's County Board of County Commissioners annually awards four tuition scholarships to county residents attend- ing the College (Code 1957, 1969 Repl. Vol., Art. 77, sees. 260, 282). Assistance is also available from the St. Mary's County Citizens' Foundation Scholarship Program. St. Mary's College participates in the NDSL Loan Program and the Educational Opportunity Grant Programs (Basic and Supplemental) sponsored by the United States government and obtained by applying directly to the College, and in the Guaranteed Student Loan Program, which is offered through the local banks. Opportunities for employment are offered through the College Work-Study Program. |
