CMC³ Foundation Scholarships

Cynthia A. Speed, President

The CMC³ Foundation Board awards approximately $9100 in scholarship funds to deserving students in the form of two types of scholarships.  They are the “AMATYC Competition Scholarship" and the “CMC³ Foundation Scholarship".  An “AMATYC Competition Scholarship” is awarded to each one of the top five finalists from our CMC³ region In the Student Math League Competition and the checks range from $500 to $200.  A “CMC³ Foundation Scholarship" is a $400 check awarded to students from approximately one-third of our 56 member colleges. There is a three year cycle in awarding the fifty-six $400 scholarships.  The 56 colleges are partitioned into three groups and scholarships are offered to each group on a rotating basis. The ultimate goal of our CMC³ Foundation Board is to award the “CMC³ Foundation Scholarships "  to all 56 colleges every academic year.

For the academic year 2007-2008, the CMC³ Foundation Board has issued $1500 in checks to the top five AMATYC Competition winners from northern and central California, and also has issued $6800 to seventeen member colleges in the form of $400 scholarship checks.      For the $400 checks, the “CMC³ Foundation Scholarship" criteria are as follows:

The student  has

1.  completed first semester Calculus or higher,

2.  declared Mathematics, Physical Science, Computer Science, or Engineering as a major,

3.  earned more than 30 semester or 45 quarter units and plans to transfer to an accredited four-year college or university for the next academic year, and
