Yes, you should be able to qualify. As long as the degree you are planning to pursue under the SMART program is on this list (http://smart.asee.org/about), you should be eligible. You will also need to meet the rest of the eligibility requirements (citizenship, GPA, etc) too.

That being said (and I am not on the review committee, so take this with reservations), having a background unrelated to your pursuant degree may affect your chances of making the final cut. SMART is a very competitive STEM-based program, so be sure to emphasize how well you're doing in your STEM courses and how good you are at your IT job.

Good luck!

Question about eligibility

Hello!

I am an undergraduate student and am interested in applying for the SMART scholarship to get an MS in Computer Science or Information Technology. I am not studying in a STEM field for my undergraduate degree so I was wondering if I would still be able to qualify. I'm not sure if this helps, but I have taken a few STEM courses related to CS and currently work as an IT assistant.

Thank you for your help.
