Welcome to the Fall Semester at SMCC!
We’re excited to have students on campus and in residence halls, for athletics to be in full swing, and for our community to feel connected through various student life opportunities.
Rest assured that we have safety protocols in place protect everyone’s health and well-being this semester. If you want to learn more, visit our COVID-19 FAQ webpage.
We want you to feel connected to the SMCC community and get your semester off on the right foot. A great way to do that is to share something about yourself, your experiences at SMCC and what you love here by posting to social media with #helloSMCC. Plus, we’re giving free SMCC merch to those who post (selected at random). The more that is shared, the more opportunities people have to connect, build friendships, and see all that the College has to offer!
We know that you may have questions throughout the semester, especially the beginning of the semester. We are here to support you. Here are some of our student support offices that can help!
