Scholarships

Investment in scholarships strengthens the University's ability to compete nationally for top students. Over the past decade, applications to SMU have nearly doubled, SAT scores have risen by 98 points and selectivity has increased.

Thanks to the generous support of donors, The Second Century Campaign is enabling SMU to continue increasing its merit-based scholarship offerings.
