Choose Ohio
The Miami Choose Ohio First In-Service Scholarships will provide up to $2,500 per year toward tuition for Ohio’s high school and middle school mathematics and science teachers who want to earn an advanced degree or are considering coursework that will count toward a degree. The scholarship, which is renewable, may also be used by mathematics and science teachers in lower grades who wish to qualify for licensure in mathematics or science for grades 7-12.
Miami’s TEAM Scholarship, which provides a 50 percent reduction in tuition and fees for Ohio teachers, can be combined with the Choose Ohio First Scholarship to make your graduate education even more affordable.
