CSI SCHOLARSHIPS   
The scholarship program at the College of Staten Island recognizes academic excellence and college or community service. In addition to scholarships offered directly by the College, the CSI Foundation, and departments and associations of the College, memorial scholarships have been endowed through the generosity of many individuals and organizations who value higher education. Scholarships support, in varying ways, the education of the men and women of our community.

AM I ELIGIBLE?
To be eligible for a scholarship, current students must:

  • Complete the application and provide all supporting documentation
  • Have and maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.5
  • Register for and successfully complete 12 or more credits for the fall term and the spring term
  • Demonstrate school and/or community service

Prospective high school applicants must have an average of 90% or above.

To be eligible for a scholarship, transfer students must:

  • Complete the application and provide all supporting documentation
  • Transfer a minimum of 28 credits from previous college(s)
  • Maintain a minimum cumulative transfer GPA of 3.5
  • Pass the three CUNY Skills Assessment Tests in reading, writing, and mathematics

The CUNY Honors College is a rigorously challenging academic program for selected first-year students. To be eligible for a scholarship, Honors College students must:

  • Complete the CUNY Honors College Application obtained from the Office of Recruitment and Admissions, North Administration Building (2A), Room 103, or from the Honors College Office, South Administration Building (1A), Room 206.
  • Contact the Honors College Office at 1.718.982.2222.

HOW DO I APPLY?
You may print out an application in pdf format. Remember to submit before the priority deadline date of March 1 or the following Monday if March 1 falls on a weekend day.

  • Completed CSI Scholarship Application accompanied by all supporting documentation
  • A personal essay of 500 words as outlined in the application
  • A biographical profile of 250 words as outlined in the application
  • Two letters of recommendation using the scholarship recommendation forms in pdf format; one must be from a faculty member or teacher who knows you well; the second may also be from a faculty member/teacher or from someone who is familiar with you from a job, volunteer assignment, or community project you have undertaken. Recommendations from family members will not be accepted.

Volunteer and community service can be supported by an attached certificate and/or a letter from the volunteer or community service coordinator on official stationery.
Applications will be considered complete upon receipt of the CSI Scholarship Application and all supporting materials. First-year and transfer students must request their own transcripts from colleges other than CSI. Official transcripts from CSI students will be requested by the Scholarship Office.

For further information, contact the Career and Scholarship Center at 1.718.982.2300.

HOW AM I EVALUATED?
Completed applications will be reviewed and evaluated by the Faculty Scholarship Committee. Applications will be scored on the quality of the essay, the two letters of recommendation, and documented community or college service. A student’s scored application and GPA determine the ranking, which then determines whether a student will receive a scholarship award. Competition for scholarships varies from year to year based on the number of applicants and is always rigorous.

HOW WILL I BE NOTIFIED?
Applicants will receive a scholarship award or non-award letter from the Scholarship Committee. Scholarship recipients will have the opportunity to meet the donors of the awards at a formal ceremony.

WHAT IF I WANT TO STUDY ABROAD?
Scholarships and awards for study abroad are available through the Center for International Service. CSI students are also eligible for STOCS (Study/Travel Opportunities for CUNY Students) grants, a CUNY program promoting short-term (summer or January term) study abroad. The College Consortium also offers scholarships for International Studies. Both types of awards must be used for participation in specially designated programs. Students interested in study abroad programs should contact the Center for International Service directly at the
following address:

Staten Island, NY 10314
Telephone 1.718.982.2100

Completed applications for these scholarships should be returned to the Center for International Service.
