The New Mexico Competitive Scholarship was created to encourage out-of-state students who have demonstrated high academic achievement in high school to enroll in New Mexico public institutions of higher education. Applicants must be non-residents or non-citizens of the United States. They must meet certain high school GPA and ACT score requirements. Students shall contact their institution's financial aid office for the deadline information, information on how to apply, and information on where or how to submit their application. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Financial Aid Division of the New Mexico Commission on Higher Education for more information.
