The Unofficial SMART Scholarship Forum

I am a current graduate student with funding from my PI for the rest of graduate school and I would still love to get the SMART scholarship. I know government work isn't for everybody but I consider the payback a perk I get a job when I graduate and don't have to find a post doc.

No offense, but if you have a full ride with no payback, you should not even think of applying to the SMART program.

If you are daft enough to accept this scholarship despite having a "full scholarship" already, then you deserve what you get. Accept it and transfer to a good school.

I am sorry but I was typing on my phone while on a flight. I was half sleep but if you get a kick out of typing an extended correction in the spelling of one word then go ahead and enjoy.

How does someone make 3 mistakes spelling a 6-letter word? The correct spelling is school. You're missing an H, you're missing an O, and you have an extra L. I would say your chances of working for the government are very good. Congratulations.

I am a Tuskegee University freshman with a High Scoll GPA of a 3.5 and an ACT score of a 25. I already have a full scholarship and i'm in Aerospace Engineering.
