Because CSM aspires to be the college of choice for women studying math, biology, or chemistry, we offer the Marie Curie Scholars Program. This prestigious program provides significant financial support and resources for academically talented young women interested in what have come to be called the STEM disciplines.  

Marie Curie Scholars may receive up to $18,000 annually for four years in gift aid - as long as they continue to meet program requirements. Participants will also have access to academic support programs such as designated tutors, research opportunities, seminars, and clubs.  

To be eligible for the Marie Curie Scholars Program, you must have graduated from high school or graduate the semester prior to enrolling; major in math, biology, or chemistry; have an ACT of 22 or a SAT of 1000; and have a minimum high school G.P.A. of 3.5.  

Applications are competitive and require completion of an application form, submission of an essay describing their interest in math or science, one letter of recommendation, a completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form, and an interview with a CSM faculty member.
