Make a Gift to the SMU Hispanic Alumni Scholarship!
Launched in 2009, the SMU Hispanic Alumni Scholarship provides direct tuition assistance to selected junior, senior and graduate-level students as they complete their degrees.
Make your tax-deductible donation today. All money raised for the Hispanic Alumni Scholarship goes directly to the current SMU students selected. Each year, these student recipients are recognized at the annual Hispanic Alumni Awards Luncheon.

Applications are due by 5 p.m. CT on Friday, March 23, 2018. The number of scholarships and amounts awarded will vary annually. This scholarship will be awarded to the recipient/s for the fall 2018 semester and will be divided out over the recipient's remaining semesters at SMU. Scholarship recipient/s will be notified in early April 2018.
We will ask scholarship recipients to attend the annual Hispanic Alumni Awards Luncheon (date to be determined). Attendance at this event is a requirement to receive the Scholarship.
