All About Scholarships Scholarships are used as an alternate source of funding students' education and do
not have to be repaid. Most scholarships are awarded based on academic achievement
and/or merit. Some scholarships are awarded based on financial need. Though some scholarships
have a GPA and/or financial need requirement, not all scholarships require students
to maintain a high GPA or demonstrate financial need. Scholarships are also awarded
on factors such as cultural background, a field of study, special skills, community
activities, and organizational affiliations. In addition, students are not restricted
to the number of scholarships they may apply for or receive. Available Scholarships and How to Apply Scholarship opportunities are also available to students who are in the Honors Program, transferring students, as well as academically talented students. There are more than 1,000 CUNY Wide Scholarships and Grants offered throughout the CUNY campuses. Scholarships offered primarily to active duty military, veterans, and/or their families.
