Horsepower is Brainpower

Your gift directly supports SMU's drive to increase student quality, enhance faculty excellence and academic distinction, and maximize students' campus experience.

Over the past decade, SMU has focused on shaping the academic profile of its student body by increasing endowed scholarships from 500 to more than 700. Average standardized test scores for entering students are higher, and admission is more selective. To remain competitive, SMU must continue to attract accomplished faculty with endowed chairs and professorships and resources for research. It must also foster teaching excellence to lead students in diverse academic programs that reflect today's changing global marketplace. The horsepower of SMU alumni can strengthen the academic power of the University.
