About this position
SMART Scholarship 2027 is a highly competitive, fully funded STEM scholarship-for-service for students pursuing a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in the United States.
The program is funded by the U.S. Department of War and supports study at regionally accredited U.S. colleges and universities. It covers full tuition, provides an annual stipend of about $30,000–$46,000, and includes a book allowance, health allowance, and paid summer internships for eligible multi-year awards.
Approved study areas include aerospace and aeronautical engineering, biomedical engineering, biosciences, chemical engineering, chemistry, civil engineering, cognitive/neural/behavioral sciences, computer science and engineering, data science and analytics, electrical engineering, geosciences, industrial and systems engineering, information sciences, materials science and engineering, mathematics, mechanical engineering, naval architecture and ocean engineering, nuclear engineering, oceanography, operations research, physics, and software engineering.
Eligibility is limited to citizens of the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, or the United Kingdom. Applicants must have a minimum 3.0 GPA, be at least 18 years old by January 1, 2028, and be able to obtain and maintain the required security clearance. High school seniors and incoming freshmen starting a bachelor’s degree in Fall 2027 are also eligible.
This is not a conventional scholarship: recipients accept a one-year civilian employment commitment with the Department of War for each year of funding received. That service obligation is a central part of the award and should be considered carefully before applying.
The application cycle opens on 1 August 2026 and closes on 4 December 2026 at 5:00 PM Eastern Time. Applicants should register through the official SMART portal, complete the online form, upload transcripts, résumé, and other requested documents, and ensure references are submitted before the deadline.
