How To Apply


The Scholarship Plus award is a scholarship and community for New York City students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement in the face of significant obstacles. 

Scholarship Plus offers such students a competitive four-year scholarship and individualized, wraparound support. We celebrate your successes, and help you navigate difficult moments. 

The scholarship may be used to pay tuition, room and board, fees, and other educational expenses. Each scholarship will be renewable annually for up to four years of study as long as the student maintains a good academic record and makes standard progress toward a degree.

  • Significant financial need (family income less than $50,000)
  • Faced great adversity
  • Willingness to engage with Scholarship Plus community in occasional events, workshops and semester check-ins

Preference will be given to students whose parents have not graduated from American four-year colleges or universities.
