Maine Education Services provides low cost, high quality scholarship management services to various entities whose shared goal is to assist Maine students by providing funds to worthy students pursuing higher education. When companies are doing more with less, “time is money.” Outsourcing the administration of a scholarship program not only allows your internal resources to focus on what they do best, but also provides consistency with program details. Let the experienced staff at MES provide this service for you. Services provided can be customized for each specific entity, and may include some or all of the following:
