St. Mary’s College has applied for accreditation but, committed to remaining as free as possible from government-imposed regulations and programs that could compromise our mission, will not participate in state or federal loan programs. We will, rather, continue to rely upon the generosity of benefactors committed to the Catholic Liberal Arts education that the College provides.
Ways to Support SMC:
† St. Mary’s College Operating Fund
This fund is used to help defray the general operating costs of the College. Your donations will help keep one of the most affordable colleges in the nation.
† Beth Gerad’s Scholarship Fund
Beth Gerads died unexpectedly while a freshman at St. Mary’s College. A scholarship was established by the family as a memorial for her virtues, and for her love of the College, to be awarded to students in the 3rd and 4th year of our program.
† Lt. Fitzsimons Scholarship Fund
Lt. Fitzsimons, a graduate of St. Marys College, was the first American officer to die in France during World War 1. He is remembered for his dedication and sense of self-less service to his profession and helping his fellow men. This competitive scholarship is awarded to graduates of St. Mary’s Academy who exhibit those same leadership qualities and above average academic abilities.
