2018 SMBS Scholar Application

Thanks to the help from Queen of the Rosary Catholic Academy and their confirmation candidates, we were able to send out over 400 applications mid-January. Applications were sent to all public high schools in the five boroughs. Please ask your college advisor or counselor for a copy. You can also submit a request for a copy to SMBS2010@aol.com. Remember post mark deadline is April 10th 2018.

Now, the search for our 11th scholar has begun!

Thank you again to Queen of the Rosary for generously giving us a location, time and man power to complete this vital component of our organization.

Best of luck to all of our applicants.

WELCOME TO THE S.M.B.S. INC.

This scholarship was created in loving memory of Stephanie Marie Burgos, who was once a student who struggled with numerous life and academic difficulties but managed to maintain her love for the fine arts and communication arts. Although her dreams were never fulfilled as we lost her to a tragic car accident in 2005, her dreams live on through this scholarship and those selected to receive it.

The scholarship was developed the year Stephanie was scheduled to graduate from high school in 2008. The talented young people that have been selected to receive this scholarship continue to live Stephanie's dream.

The scholarship is granted for four years to one new candidate annually; who is a senior in good standing, graduating from a New York City Department of Education High School and entering an accredited four year college, with the condition of maintaining contact with the organization & family on their academic progress yearly.
