Scholars program smc

This policy helps ensure the Scholars Program prioritizes and serves the students its founding purpose and mission guide it to serve.

Continuing students must submit a copy of their SMC transcripts. Unofficial transcripts are acceptable. Continuing students who have previously attended other colleges or universities must submit transcripts for all colleges attended. SMC offers over scholarships based on a wide range of qualifications that extend beyond academic performance.

While we do offer many academic merit-based scholarships including nearly a full-tuition scholarship for top performers , we also offer scholarships for those pursuing certain majors, who come from a specific community or high school, have leadership experience, and much more.

All graduating high school seniors are automatically considered for academic scholarships when they apply for admission, but other scholarships require separate applications. SMC also accepts scholarships from outside sources. Click here to learn about private scholarships. Please make sure that your phone number is correct in Corsair Connect.
