Financial Aid

There are a limited number of partial scholarships available for admitted Liberal Studies M.A. students. These scholarships offer one point of tuition credit and are awarded annually on the basis of need and merit. Full-time contracted primary or secondary school teachers in New York State in active service should apply for Fifty-Percent Tuition Reduction. Application forms for both the 1-Point Scholarships and tuition reduction may be obtained below and are due by July 15. Recipients will be notified of their awards before September 1.

Liberal Studies M.A. students who are New York State residents, who plan to be full-time students, who are admitted into the program and who meet New York State eligibility requirements may qualify for a New York State Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) grant. Students who are completing at least 6 points of work a term and who show need may qualify for the Stafford (formerly GSL) Loan program. You may be eligible for other loan programs with higher rates of interest. Students who need part-time work may qualify for the Federal Work-Study Program.

For more information concerning financial aid, please call (212) 854-3808.
