Benefits and Obligations

As part of the CSEMS program, students will receive more that just financial benefits, including a personal faculty mentor to advise and assist them during their time at SMCC. Although academic achievement takes priority, scholarship recipients are expected to give back one hour a week of community service. This can be done through tutoring (either individually or though the Learning Assistance Center), by volunteering to join an I.T. tech support team, or any other suitable means.
