NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS
With the passage of the FY 2018 State Budget, New York is now home to the nation's first accessible college program –
The Excelsior Scholarship. Under this groundbreaking program, more than 940,000 middle-class families and individuals making up to $125,000 per year will qualify to attend college tuition-free at all CUNY and SUNY two- and four-year colleges in New York State.
The new program begins in the fall of 2017 and will be phased in
over three years. To apply, students must:
– Be residents of New York State
– Attend a SUNY or CUNY two- or four-year degree program
– Take 30 credits per calendar year (including January and
Summer sessions)
– Plan to live and work in New York following graduation for
the length of time they participate in the scholarship program
