Welcome to Live + Work in Maine. We're so glad you're here. 

The State of Maine wants to help you thrive! Live and work in Maine, and you could be eligible for student loan repayment assistance through the Student Loan Repayment Program.

Maine's Student Loan Repayment Program (up to $25,000)

 - This opportunity loan reimburses student loan payments for college graduates who live and work in Maine. You may qualify for up to $2,500 back per year for 10 years as a refundable tax credit if you obtained an associate's, bachelor's or graduate degree after 2007, you graduated from an accredited school anywhere on Planet Earth, you were a Maine resident during the tax year, and had a certain amount of earned income during the tax year. 

Whether you already have children or plan to in the future, Maine is a great place to raise a family. Read more below about the programs available to support Mainers and their families. 

 - For Maine taxpayers, contributions are made to a 529 account in the amount of up to $1,000 per student. NextGen 529 accounts do more than help you save for a four-year college education. They can be used to pay for two-year associate degree programs, trade schools, even qualified online courses—at home or abroad. 

- A $500 grant towards future higher education expenses for all babies born Maine residents. 

- Provides free breakfast and lunch to all students in public schools, regardless of income. 

 - Beginning in 2026, eligible workers in the private and public sector will have up to 12 weeks of paid time off available to care for a family member with a serious health condition, to bond with a child after birth, fostering or adoption, to care for their own medical needs, to deal with the transition of a family member’s impending military deployment or to stay safe after abuse or violence. 

Insurance Coverage for Fertility Treatments

 - Beginning in 2024, the law ensures that insurance companies offering policies in Maine must now include fertility treatments in their coverage. This is a significant step forward for families struggling with fertility issues, as the costs associated can often be prohibitively high. It is important to note, though, that while the law mandates coverage, it doesn’t specify the extent of the coverage. This means that insurance providers may still have some discretion in terms of how much of the treatment costs they will cover. 

Considering furthering your education? Maine has programs to support you. 

The Roux Institute of Northeastern University Graduate School Scholarships

  - Maine residents are awarded generous scholarships to earn in-demand graduate degrees at Northeastern University’s Roux Institute via its Alfond Scholars Initiative. The average scholarship award is $30,000. 

 - Maine’s seven community colleges are the smart and affordable choice for lifelong learning in Maine. The colleges offer many low- or no-cost options, including free Early College courses for high school students, tuition-free associate degrees and one-year certificates for recent high school graduates, and no- or low-cost short-term workforce training programs open to all adults. The colleges serve more than 33,000 people a year, 80% of students are enrolled in occupational programs, provide hassle-free guaranteed transfer programs to all of Maine’s seven public universities and six of Maine’s private universities, and offer a robust campus life experience complete with sports, student housing, activities - all set amid Maine’s stunning coastline, rivers, lakes, and forests. 

It's no accident that Maine was named one of the Best States for Military Retirees. Check out the link below to learn more.
