SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Introduction

Due to increasing student loan debt and dwindling gift funds, I was asked to compile a list of available outside scholarship opportunities to help students borrow less. As a current student, I understand that the thought of repaying student loan debt can be overwhelming. Receiving outside scholarship money can be a great way to decrease the amount students need to borrow. The outside scholarship search process often requires much time and effort, so I am very excited to introduce a list of scholarship opportunities that can help jump-start your search. I hope that you find it useful. Please feel free to contact the Office of Financial Aid at (315) 781-3315 or stop by if you have any questions. And remember, never pay for a scholarship application or search engine. -Erin Moore '15

 

Note: You are required to report any outside scholarship awards to the Office of Financial Aid. The total amount of your financial aid awards, when added to your outside scholarships, cannot exceed your total cost of attendance for any given year.
