The Tuition Assistance Program offers up to $5,665 annually to eligible New York State students attending full-time, part-time, or non-degree workforce credential programs. Awards are based on income, family size, financial status, tuition cost, and program length. Applicants must meet residency, income, academic, and enrollment criteria and reapply annually.
Applicants must be legal NYS residents for 12 months or qualify under the NYS DREAM Act, meet income limits based on dependency status, be in good academic and financial standing, and attend an approved NYS college in a degree-granting program.
