How to Get the New Mexico Lottery Scholarship Application

New Mexico lottery scholarships are available for New Mexico residents who wish to attend one of the 25 public colleges, junior colleges or universities in New Mexico. The resident must also graduate from a New Mexico public high school or an accredited private school, or obtain a New Mexico GED. This scholarship has been helping students since 1996, and is called the Legislative Lottery Scholarship. No specific application is required to receive the scholarship, so a student needs to deal completely with the learning institution of his choice.
