Promise Chromebook Project

New initiative to give current Promise students a free Chromebook to achieve success.

SMC Promise Chromebook Project

To prepare for Fall 2021, all Promise students in the 2020-2021 AND 2021-2022 cohorts are eligible to receive a FREE CHROMEBOOK computer while supplies last. Our goal is to assist as many Promise students as we can who need reliable technology to be successful in their classes. To receive a Chromebook, the only action a student needs to take is to complete the Promise Chromebook Contract which will result in a confirmation number that will be used for pickup in the main campus Bookstore. Make sure to read the FAQ section below before completing the contract.
