The state of Missouri allows qualifying graduates from designated A+ high schools the opportunity to receive free maintenance fees (in-district or out-of-district tuition and general fees) for two full academic years to a community college. The financial incentive is paid after any federal or state grant for which students are eligible is applied, excluding loans and work-study. A+ will cover any remaining maintenance fees.
