Major Update for the SMCCCD General Scholarship Application

Effective November 1, students are no longer required to submit a letter of recommendation for the general SMCCCD scholarship application. With this, the application deadline has been extended to March 3, 2025, at 4:30 p.m. This change provides students with extra time to complete their applications and removes an additional obstacle in the submission process. While a letter of recommendation is not necessary for the general scholarship application, some donors may still request one for their specific scholarships. We encourage students to utilize office hours and actively participate in the community. If you have any questions regarding this update or the scholarship application, please contact the Financial Aid Services Department at canaid@smccd.edu.
