UMaine, Flagship Match cited in Missourian article on MU recruitment
The University of Maine and its Flagship Match tuition scholarship program were mentioned in a Columbia Missourian article about falling enrollment and new recruitment efforts at the University of Missouri. UMaine, like other Northeastern and Midwestern universities, saw enrollment declines, so it decided to match the in-state tuition of several regional universities, the article states. Now headed into its third year, the Flagship Match program has seen lasting gains in enrollment from Maine’s neighboring states, according to the article, which cited an earlier Inside Higher Ed report.
