We have done our best to make this guide as accurate as possible with help

from resources at the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation

and the New York State Office of Higher Education. However, the various

dynamic scholarship, grant, and award programs are always evolving. Over

time it is common for these programs to change their qualifications,

requirements, and allotments. Please feel free to contact Senator Krueger’s

office at 212-490-9535 or lkrueger@nysenate.gov if there are additional

Fall 2018

Dear Neighbor,

Higher education and life‐long learning have become essential for success in our society.

However, the costs of higher education have become unbearable for some, and burdensome for

all. As a result of the rising costs, some high school students either do not see a college degree as

a possibility, or turn their backs on higher education altogether because they do not understand

the long‐term benefit to their lives. No student in New York should forego a college education

just because they or their family think they cannot afford it.

Therefore, we are very pleased to bring you this second edition of this informational booklet,

compiled by state Senator Liz Krueger, about some of New York State’s financial aid and

academic support opportunity programs including Governor Cuomo’s new Excelsior

Scholarship, as well as ETA, HEOP, EOP, SEEK, College Discovery, C‐STEP and Macaulay

Honors. Many of these programs were designed to help young adults not just get into and afford

college, but succeed academically and socially once they are there. All have contributed in

creating upward socio‐economic mobility for tens of thousands of students across New York

State.

Four of the programs included were developed by esteemed former Assembly member Arthur

Eve, a true leader in the fight to improve access to higher education for all New Yorkers.

We hope you find this information useful, and that you or someone you know may benefit from

these programs. Please share this information with your family, friends, and colleagues, as well

as school administrators, teachers, and counselors who can help us put this information to good

use.

Sincerely,

Liz Krueger

State Senator

FEDERAL & STATE GRANTS

A grant is "free money" for college. Grants do not have to be paid back. Applying for federal

grants through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is your first step.

Visit the Federal Student Aid Office of the U.S. Department of Education website to get started

https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/fafsa.

Colleges may award grants based on various factors, including:

Financial need

Academic merit

Artistic or athletic talent

Course of study

Before pursuing other financial aid, get all the grants — free money — you can!

Federal Grants

NEW YORK STATE SCHOLARSHIP:

EXCLESIOR SCHOLARSHIP

Program Overview

The New York State Excelsior Scholarship is a program leading the way to tuition-free college

for middle class New Yorkers. Governor Cuomo’s Excelsior Scholarship in combination with

other student financial aid programs, allows some students to attend college tuition-free.

Founded in 2017, The Excelsior Scholarship is available to qualified students who wish to

pursue an undergraduate degree at a SUNY or CUNY college, including community colleges and

the statutory colleges at Cornell University and Alfred University.

The Excelsior Scholarship was founded on the principle that today; college is what high school

was—it should always be an option even if you cannot afford it.

Funding

A recipient of an Excelsior Scholarship may receive up to $5,500. To determine the award

amount, the 2016-17 resident tuition rate charged by SUNY ($6,470) or CUNY ($6,330) will be

reduced by the amount of certain other student financial aid awards, which an applicant has or

will receive for the academic year, including a NYS Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) award

and/or federal Pell grant. The Excelsior Scholarship will cover any remaining tuition liability up

to $5,500; and a tuition credit will cover any remaining tuition expenses not covered by the

Excelsior Scholarship.

*Note: Any award payment received may have tax implications. Any questions regarding this

should be directed to a tax professional, the Internal Revenue Service, or the NYS Department of

Taxation and Finance.

STATE SCHOLARSHIP:

ENHANCED TUITION AWARDS PROGRAM

Program Overview

The Enhanced Tuition Awards (ETA) program provides tuition awards to students who are New

York State residents attending a participating private college located in New York State.

Recipients will receive $6,000 through a combination of their TAP award, ETA award and a

match from their private college.

Founded in 2017, similar to the Excelsior Scholarship, ETA will be phased over three years,

beginning for New Yorkers making up to $100,000 annually in the fall of 2017, increasing to

$110,000 in 2018, and reaching $125,000 in 2019.

The 2018-19 State Budget expands the Enhanced Tuition Awards program to more students

attending in-state, degree-granting private colleges that opt to participate in the program for the

2018-19 academic year. There are currently forty-three in-state, degree-granting private colleges

that have opted to participate in ETA. To find out which private colleges are included visit The

New York State Higher Education Service Corporation website.

Funding

Recipients of Enhanced Tuition Awards will generally receive $6,000 through a combination of

EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM (EOP)

Program Overview

The New York State Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) provides financial aid and

academic support to disadvantaged New York state residents who wish to pursue a state funded,

public higher education. Founded in 1967, EOP is available to qualified students who wish to

study on a four‐ or two‐year State University of New York (SUNY) campus. In order to qualify

for EOP funding, students must be both economically (see page 28) and academically

disadvantaged.

EOP was founded on the principle of offering capable, underrepresented students, who did not

perform at their full potential while in high school, the opportunity to succeed in college.

EOP now exists on 48 SUNY campuses. EOP graduates number more than 70,000. Most alumni

continue to live in New York, enriching its economic and social fabric by working as physicians,

teachers, scientists, engineers, attorneys, artists, entrepreneurs and public servants and, many

have returned to SUNY to serve as EOP administrators and counselors who provide support to

another generation of opportunity students. In 2018, SUNY’s Educational Opportunity Program

celebrated five decades of success.

EOP students can expect to attend a mandatory three to five week pre‐freshman summer

program, though not every institution offers this. For the 2018‐19 academic year, 41 of the 48

programs offered the summer program, which is designed to teach students the skills they will

need to succeed academically once the school‐year begins, including: time management, writing,

and study skills. The summer program also offers courses in the fields of math and writing.

Throughout the academic year, EOP continues to offer academic support for their students. Free

tutoring and career counseling, as well as supplemental educational workshops are some of the

many services offered by EOP offices.

18

Applying To EOP

The application for admission to EOP is tied into the regular SUNY admissions application. On

that application, there is a section, which asks the applying student whether or not they

would like to be considered for EOP; once the student self identifies as interested, and the

application is submitted, the process of evaluation by SUNY begins. The studentsʹ eligibility is

determined based on household income, as well as previous academic performance, including

GPA, SATs, and teacher recommendations. Students can also use the Common Application to

apply to EOP through the same process.

Note: You cannot apply for both the EOP and Early Decision/Early Action programs.

EOP Requirements

Financial: The student must be economically disadvantaged according to the standards set forth

by the State Education Department (see page 28).

Academic: Must be inadmissible according to each college or university’s traditional standards,

based on high school GPA and standardized test scores. Therefore, standards vary so students are

advised to look up the requirements for individual schools or contact the EOP office at the

schools of their choice. To be eligible for EOP, applicants must be ineligible for admission under

traditional standards, but demonstrate potential for completing a college-level program. As part

of the EOP admission process, your high school record and test scores (if required) will be

reviewed, as well as information about clubs, hobbies, jobs and any other experiences which

made an impact on your education. This information will help college counselors evaluate your

potential for success in a college program. You can view the EOP Freshman profile for each

campus here: https://www.suny.edu/media/suny/content-assets/documents/summary-

sheets/EOP_profile.pdf

Residency: A student must be a New York state resident for at least 12 months prior to

enrollment in EOP.

19

HIGHER EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY

PROGRAM (HEOP)

Program Overview

The New York State Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (also known as

HEOP) is one of the country’s most significant state funded programs for economically and

academically disadvantaged students. Founded in 1969, HEOP programs exist at independent

colleges and universities, providing funding and academic support to their students. With 55

HEOP programs throughout New York State, offering a wide variety of academic courses in

major fields of study, HEOP gives those students who might not otherwise have the chance to

pursue higher education, the academic and economic tools they need to succeed.

Academic Support

In addition to economic assistance, most students accepted into the HEOP program must

complete a pre‐freshman summer program. Recognizing that students may need extra academic

assistance before the regular school‐year begins, the summer program provides students the

intellectual tools they need to succeed in college. Courses often focus on study skills, analytical

writing, and effective research methods. Throughout the school year, HEOP offices work with

each student individually, offering academic and career counseling, as well as free tutoring and

developmental/supportive courses that teach important life skills like time management. The

typical HEOP student is one who has the ability and motivation to succeed but has not yet been

given—or fully taken—the opportunity to prove him or herself academically. The student may

not be accepted under typical academic admission standards. In order to be eligible for HEOP,

the student must meet both the academic guidelines established by each individual institution, as

well as economic standards set forth by the state Education Department (see page 28).

Applying To HEOP

To apply for admission to a Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP), request an

application from the institution that you are interested in attending. There are 55 HEOP programs

20

throughout New York State, offering a wide variety of academic courses in major fields of study.

Specific information can be obtained by writing to the HEOP program on that campus. A roster

of HEOP programs is listed at the end of this brochure.

Note: Many independent colleges require you to apply by February 1 of the year you intend to

begin. This date varies at each campus. Please plan to apply as early as possible.

HEOP Requirements

Financial: The student must be economically disadvantaged according to the standards set forth

by the state Education Department (see page 28).

Academic: Be educationally disadvantaged. An educationally disadvantaged student is a student

who otherwise would not be accepted as a matriculated student under the institution's normal

admissions standards in the degree program for which application is made. At open admissions

institutions, an educationally disadvantaged student must meet one of the following criteria:

a) Possess a high school equivalency diploma; or

b) Possess the equivalent of a GED; or

c) Have no high school diploma; or

d) Meet other acceptable academic criteria, which differentiate the HEOP student from

regularly admitted students (e.g., lower test scores, lower GED scores).

Contact information can be found on pages 31‐33.

Residency: A student must be a New York state resident for at least 12 months prior to

enrollment in HEOP.

21

SEEK & COLLEGE DISCOVERY

Program Overview

Search for Education, Elevation, and Knowledge (SEEK) and College Discovery were the first

higher education opportunity programs introduced by the State of New York. As part of the City

University of New York (CUNY), SEEK and College Discovery provide supplemental academic

and financial support to New York state residents from disadvantaged backgrounds who wish to

study at two‐ or four‐year CUNY colleges.

College Discovery was initially established in 1964 by the Board of Higher Education as an

experimental program created in the spirit of the Civil Rights Movement to prove that those

historically excluded from higher education could obtain a degree given the right assistance. The

program proved successful and was permanently established in 1969, and can be found on

CUNY community college campuses. SEEK got its start at the City College of New York in

1965 and was written into New York State law the following year. Today there are eleven SEEK

Programs across the University, one Program in each of the eight senior and three

comprehensive colleges.

Over the past 50 years, SEEK and CD have changed the definition of who is “college material.”

They have opened the doors to a CUNY education for hundreds of thousands of students who

were less likely to attend college because they do not come from a wealthy family or because

they did not perform up to their potential in high school. SEEK and CD students demonstrate

that your past need not determine your future. This aid is in addition to the financial aid that is

available to regularly admitted students, and the primary purpose is to cover college‐related

expenses like books and supplies.

Applying To Seek & College Discovery

Eligibility for these two programs is dependent on the student’s economic need and academic

standing. The student must be economically disadvantaged according to the guidelines set forth

by the State Education Department (See page 28). For SEEK, the academic standards can differ

22

among each program, but in order to be eligible, the student must be determined academically

inadmissible under CUNY general admissions standards. These standards are based on high

school class ranking, GPA, and SAT scores.

College Discovery has a more specific standard for the studentsʹ academic standing: the high

school average must be less than 80% with them ranking in the lower two‐thirds of their high

school classes. In order to be considered for either of these programs, it is required that students

fill out the Special Programs section of the CUNY admissions application, as well as submit the

Free Application for Student Financial Aid (FAFSA) and apply for state TAP. Not all applicants

who are eligible based on income and academic standards can be accepted into these programs.

Therefore, it is recommended that interested students turn in their forms as early as possible to

increase their chance of acceptance.

Once accepted into SEEK or College Discovery, unless they are exempted by their

Regents or SAT scores, students must take the CUNY basic skills assessment tests.

These exams test the student’s basic reading, math and writing skills. The exams are designed to

determine each students’ areas of academic weakness; if they do not pass one or more of these

tests, they are required to attend a pre‐freshman summer program to bring their skills up to a

level that will help them to succeed in a college environment. A student who fails one of the

three tests but does not attend a pre‐freshman program cannot be admitted into SEEK or College

Discovery. Some of the SEEK and College Discovery programs require that their students attend

a pre‐freshman summer program regardless of their performance on the skills assessment tests.

Upon first arriving at their CUNY school, SEEK and College Discovery students are given a

variety of forms of academic assistance, known as “supplemental instruction.” SEEK and

College Discovery use a large portion of their annual budgets to fund counselors and academic

programs that ensure the success of their students. Among the areas students will find assistance

with are guidance in selecting a major and a minor, personal challenges, career advisement, and

graduate school preparation and application. Support services also include workshops in time

management, how to cope with stress, as well as tutoring and peer study groups.

23

The financial and academic support provided by these programs, in conjunction with their hands‐

on counseling approach, have proven highly affective. First year retention rates in SEEK and

College Discovery are higher than for non‐program students.

SEEK & COLLEGE DISCOVERY REQUIREMENTS

Financial: The student must be economically disadvantaged according to the standards set forth

by the state Education Department (see page 28).

Academic: To be eligible for SEEK or College Discovery, students must be deemed

ʺacademically disadvantagedʺ as defined according to the regular admissions criteria established

by the CUNY four‐or two‐year college the student wishes to attend. Contact the SEEK or

College Discovery office at the college of your choice directly for more information. Contact

information can be found on page 38.

Residency: A student must be a New York state resident for at least 12 months prior to

enrollment in SEEK. For College Discovery, a student must be a New York City resident for at

least 12 months prior to enrollment.

24

COLLEGIATE SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY

EDUCATION PROGRAM (C‐STEP)

Program Overview

In 1986, New York State founded the Collegiate Science and Technology Entry program

(C‐STEP), and since then it has grown to 51 programs at both independent and public four‐year

and two‐year postsecondary institutions. The program was created with the purpose of increasing

the number of historically underrepresented and economically disadvantaged students in

academic programs that lead to careers related to the fields of math, science and technology

(MST). Healthcare, education, and law are also among the fields included in C‐STEP‐targeted

professions.

Funding

C‐STEP IS NOT A FINANCIAL AID PROGRAM; the funding each program receives is

used towards the multitude of student services offered by C‐STEP. These services include

tutoring, career counseling, graduate school application assistance, as well as research

opportunities.

Additionally, C‐STEP helps students find internships in their field of study and often connects

them with faculty or professional mentors. Some programs offer a summer preparatory program.

C‐STEP supports students interested in graduate school with access to courses that will help

them prepare for tests like the MCAT and LSAT.

Applying To C‐STEP

In order for a student to be eligible for admission to a C‐STEP program, they must first be

admitted to a school with an existing program. Unlike other opportunity programs, C‐STEP is a

program designed for students who have performed well enough academically in high school to

be admitted to their school of choice under regular applicant standards. Once determined

25

academically admissible, the admissions department is then responsible for identifying those

students who would be further eligible to participate in C‐STEP.

C‐STEP students must either be of minority descent (African American, Hispanic,

Native American or Alaskan Native) or be qualified as economically disadvantaged according to

the same state Education Department standards used for EOP and HEOP. Once enrolled in a C‐

STEP program, the student is required to remain in good academic standing each semester as

defined by their college.

C‐STEP Requirements

Income: The student must be economically disadvantaged according to the standards set forth by

the state Education Department (see page 28).

Academic: Must be admitted to the college or university under traditional standards. Students

have the option to apply to C‐STEP even after their freshman year. C‐STEP students are required

to remain in good academic standing at their school in order to remain enrolled in the program.

For contact information, see page 30 - 39.

Residency: A student must be a New York state resident for at least 12 months prior to

enrollment in C‐STEP.

TALK TO YOUR GUIDANCE COUNSELOR

Making an appointment with your school’s guidance counselor is one of the most important steps

for you to take in your college application process. Among the ways that your guidance

counselor can be helpful include giving your ideas about a variety of schools that offer academic

programs that can satisfy your academic and career aspirations, help you and your family better

understand the application process, and they can even help you arrange college visits.

You can also find a great deal of information online that will make your application process

easier, and more effective.

For instance, the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC) maintains a

comprehensive website for students, families, and counselors.

http://www.hesc.com/content.nsf/

HESC offers advice on such topics as ʺCollege and Career Planningʺ which can make choosing

a college easier, as well as provide you a calendar of college fairs taking place in your area. A

second resource HESC offers, ʺPaying for College ʺ has a wealth of information on New York’s

College Savings Program, as well as other grants, scholarships and awards, among other items.

There are also a number of organizations (and in some instances, colleges themselves) who have

online resource guides to help you best prepare for examinations like the SAT, complete a strong

college application, and write the best college essay that you can. As a word of caution, some

cost money, many do not.
