Free college applications, scholarships and guaranteed admission: NYC colleges want Bronx students to thrive – Bronx Times

Free College Applications and Scholarships for Bronx Students

The City University of New York (CUNY) has started its free college application period, following Lehman College's announcement of a new scholarship.

CUNY will waive the $65 application fee for NYC high school students, making it easier for them to attend one of its colleges, including three campuses in the Bronx.

“We want every New York City Public School student to know that there is a place for them at CUNY and we are trying to make it easier for them to attend with fee waivers, scholarships and outreach to them and their families,”
said CUNY Chancellor Félix V.

Public colleges aim to make college affordable and ease the transition from high school for Bronx students, with guaranteed admission for students completing dual credit courses.
