Maryland Offers Howard's 502 Disenrolled Students $800 Credit as Fall Transfer Push Accelerates

Summary
$800 credits and expedited late-admission reviews are being offered by Maryland to students disenrolled by Howard University who still need a college placement for this fall.
Participating University System of Maryland campuses with open seats will review affected students quickly, while the Maryland Higher Education Commission helps them find programs, navigate aid and finish applications.
Howard had dropped 502 incoming students after accounts lacked required payments or financial documents by university deadlines, with families saying loans, scholarships and other outside funding had not yet posted.
Howard has since reinstated a considerable number of students after case-by-case reviews, but said not all 502 will be reenrolled and some may instead be offered deferred enrollment.
