The Calumet Commitment
AN INSTITUTIONAL PROMISE
The Calumet Commitment is an institutional scholarship that offers students the opportunity to have their senior year tuition paid—in full.
Born from Calumet College of St. Joseph’s dedication to social justice, service, and community, the Calumet Commitment is our promise to continue investing in our diverse population of students by offering them the support—financial, academic and personal—they need to succeed.
In light of current events, it is more important than ever to ensure a college education is affordable and accessible for students in our region. All first-time freshmen who register for classes beginning in Fall 2021 are automatically eligible to receive this scholarship.

- Enter Calumet College of St. Joseph as a freshman
- Reach their senior year by the 7th semester from the start of freshman year
- Must enter that 7th semester with a minimum GPA of 3.3
