A valuable college experience CAN be affordable

Not all college experiences are the same, and we believe you shouldn't have to give up the real benefits of a four-year campus experience because of cost.

Benefits like living on campus with friends, participating in project-based learning, completing strong internship experiences and entrepreneurship opportunities, playing (or enjoying watching!) SMC sports, and so much more.

SMC has offered free tuition to SC LIFE scholars since 2007. We haven't raised our tuition since 2015. But we offer so much more than just an affordable price tag.

The value of an SMC education:

True Community

Living on campus is the best way to get the full college experience. Make new friends, learn new skills, and practice adulting - supported every step of the way by your SMC community.

Get Involved

Campus clubs and activities let you truly customize your SMC experience. Grow your interests and passions or develop your leadership skills. Either way, your tribe is here!

Learn by Doing

SMC's Camak Core and Career Services programs help you translate classroom knowledge into practical, project-based experiences like internships and capstones for career-readiness.

Personal Support

Balancing college with life? Yep, it's tough sometimes. But don't worry, you'll have a personal academic advisor and a success team to help you stay on track to graduate. Think of it as your personal support squad!

Career Preparation

Real talk: it takes more than a degree to succeed in the workplace. Your SMC bachelor's degree has career skills training baked in! Most other colleges make you do career prep on your own time.

Stackable Degrees

More real talk: over 40% of college students never finish their four-year degree. We've got your back: all SMC students earn a two-year degree at the mid-point of earning a four-year degree.
