Welcome
The Financial Aid Office administers federal and state funds, as well as those provided by special programs and the College itself, to ensure that you will have an opportunity to pursue higher education at CCNY. The office will work with you to combine scholarships, grants, loans, work opportunities and governmental benefits into a package to help meet the difference between the cost of college and the contributions you and your families are able to make.
Most of our award amounts are need based, and you will have to maintain good academic standing.
We urge you to apply for financial aid for each upcoming year before the priority deadline of April 1st each year. This site is designed to help you through that process, and we welcome you to visit our office in person.
The 2012-2013 FAFSA is now available at www.fafsa.gov. Students and/or their parents should file a 2011 federal tax return (and New York state tax return if applicable) as soon as possible. Early FAFSA filers are more likely to receive the earliest awards which will be made in April 2012.
