When filling out the FAFSA be sure to include the SMU school code: 003613.
To receive a grant you must be properly registered for 2025-2026 courses. Students seeking Lengnick grants are also welcome to submit a one-page letter to the office of the director of the Doctor of Ministry Program explaining any special circumstances that should be taken into account.
Students requesting funding for the June 2025 cohort need to fill out FASFA for 2024-2025 and 2025-2026.
