SUNY Westchester Community College Scholarships
SUNY Westchester Community College has streamlined its scholarship process. There is no scholarship application. Our goal is to make it easier for more students to benefit from these awards. This process will allow the college to provide a comprehensive financial assistance package in a timelier manner. Students are encouraged to file annually and as early as possible. Awards will not be renewed without one of the appropriate applications on file. Our annual scholarships are awarded for Fall and Spring semesters.
To be considered for a Westchester Community College Foundation Scholarships:
- All students must file either a FAFSA (US Citizens and Permanent Residents), TAP (US Citizens and Permanent Residents), or the New York State DREAM Act Application (Dreamers, DACA or Undocumented) to be automatically considered for a Westchester Community College Foundation scholarship.
- International Students will have a separate application form. Please click on the following link to complete the Scholarship Financial Need form (F-1, Other Visa holders). If you are a DACA/Undocumented student who was rejected for the NYS Dream Act application (due to lack of documentation) then proceed to submit this form as well.
