We are launching a fundraising initiative to support graduates of the two-year Associate Degree Program who intend to transfer to Bard College Berlin for the completion of the full Bachelor’s degree.

Having begun their studies with Smolny Beyond Borders online, these outstanding students will continue their academic journey in person at Bard College Berlin. Our goal is to raise at least €50,000 (an equivalent of two full years of study and living expenses) for a dedicated SBB scholarship within BCB’s Program on International Education and Social Change to support students who will transfer in the Fall Semester 2027 and complete their BAs in Berlin.

By investing in their potential, we are not only transforming one student’s future, we are strengthening a community of leaders and changemakers for years to come.

Donations to the SBB Scholarship can be made via the Bard College Berlin donation page, by selecting Smolny Beyond Borders from the drop down menu. Every contribution brings us closer to our goal.
