MEMBER TUITION DISCOUNTS

When you invest in a Chamber membership you save with exclusive discounts! These discounts are significant enough to reduce or even eliminate the cost of membership! The Frederick County Chamber of Commerce is proud to offer the following opportunities through our partnerships with Hood College and Mount St. Mary’s University, Frederick Campus.

To take advantage of these opportunities, organizations must be a member in good standing with the Chamber. To check on your membership status please log into the member portal or email info@frederickchamber.org. These benefits apply to all full-time employees of a member business. 

Hood College Tuition Reduction
-For members, their employees, spouses and children-

The NeighborHOOD program Partners Program with the Frederick County Chamber of Commerce provides the following benefits to full-time employees of partner organizations and their dependents*:
  • Tuition discount for graduate and undergraduate credits.
  • Annual tuition discount of up to $15,000 for undergraduate and up to $1,000 for graduate students. For graduate students, this means up to $500 tuition discount available in the fall, and up to $500 tuition discount available in the spring.
  • Students must be enrolled for both fall and spring semesters. Undergraduates must be full-time.
  • Undergraduate students who also qualify for academic merit scholarships will receive the larger of the awards (merit scholarship or NeighborHOOD Partners discount) but not both.
  • The graduate discount is not available for the doctoral program.
  • The discount is not stackable with any other institutional scholarships or awards. It may be received in combination with need-based financial aid.
  • For students with employer-funded educational benefits, the discount is "last dollar in" with the total received not to exceed the tuition charged.
  • Employee eligibility must be verified by the partner's HR office each semester the student is enrolled.
  • Please note: Additional fees (i.e. semester comprehensive fees) are not included in the Neighborhood program.
* Available to employees once they have exceeded their employer's annual education benefits. For purpose of this partnership, a dependent child is one who will be claimed by the employee as an income tax exemption in each of the years in the partnership.

​"My involvement in the Chamber has been incredibly beneficial in increasing awareness of Other Voices Theatre! At every Chamber function I meet someone that doesn't know about the theater and I am able to gain another audience member or sometimes a sponsor for a production. My Chamber membership is well worth all of the new faces that we continue to welcome to our shows.”- Susan Thornton, Artistic Director
