Grant Overview

Delaware faces a critical shortage of educators, particularly in subjects like mathematics and special education. The state's education system serves a diverse student population, with significant achievement gaps that need to be addressed. Delaware's population is approximately 984,000, with a relatively high percentage of residents living in New Castle County, where the majority of the state's educational institutions are located.

It aims to alleviate financial burdens associated with education degrees, particularly for students from underrepresented groups. The scholarships encourage students to contribute to the local education system, addressing equity issues in education and helping to build a more diverse teaching workforce.

Eligibility Criteria for Delaware Applicants

Delaware applicants must be high school seniors who have been accepted into an education program at a Delaware institution.
