Licensing is not a formality. It is how Maryland checks instructors, training cars and course content. If a school is not licensed, its lessons may not count toward a license or an insurance discount.
In Maryland, driving schools are licensed through the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA).
- Search Maryland’s official driving school list or lookup for the school’s name.
- Match the name, address and any license number with what the school gives you.
- Ask the school for its license number. A licensed school will tell you right away.
- New drivers: the MVA driver education program is 30 classroom hours plus 6 hours behind the wheel. (source)
Rules change, so confirm the details with the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) before you enroll.
