undergraduate students
Attending college involves an enormous level of transition, and at Saint Mary's we know that tuition and fees are a major concern for undergraduates and their families. That's why we have financial aid options based on need, academic merit and program commitments. We also have a variety of payment options and a payment plan, and if necessary we can direct you to alternative options for financing your education. We'll make sure you have the resources you need to take full advantage of your time at SMC.
