For most Maryland Higher Education Commission scholarships and/or grants, the funds will disburse to your account on the first disbursement date after the start date of the course that fulfills the enrollment requirement for your award. For example, if you are an undergraduate student who receives a grant that requires full-time enrollment, and three of your courses (9 credits) begin on September 1, but your fourth course (3 credits) doesn’t begin until October 1, your grant will disburse on the first disbursement date after October 1.
