Reviewers look for a 2.5 cumulative GPA. You file one application at scholarships.smeef.org during the annual November-through-February window, and the portal routes you to Chapter 67 Phoenix plus every other SME fund you match.

What is the Chapter 67 Phoenix Scholarship?

Chapter 67 Phoenix Scholarship sends SME Education Foundation dollars to students who want manufacturing and technology careers inside Arizona. Phoenix Chapter No. 67 sponsors the fund, but you still apply through the same unified portal SME uses nationwide each winter.

The fund welcomes both sides of the college transition. High school seniors can enter if they are honest about enrolling in a manufacturing-related program at an Arizona campus, while undergraduates already in manufacturing engineering technology or industrial technology lanes can compete in the same pool. A 2.5 GPA keeps the door wider than many chapter funds that insist on 3.0.

Award sizes vary by year, so plan your budget around the offer letter rather than a single published number. If you are stacking SME awards, read the SME Education Foundation Scholarship guide and compare the Chapter 56 Fort Wayne Scholarship guide for another regional campus requirement.
