Future CCTOP Students

Scholarship Details

The CCTOP scholarship works with, not in place of, regular student aid including grants and loans. All school-based aid, such as CCTOP and the PTK award, are renewable annually by staying in good standing and on track academically.

All eligible students receive an $8000 merit scholarship. Students are then awarded need-based scholarship, based on their need as determined by the FAFSA form, up to an additional $12,000.

Members of Phi Theta Kappa may qualify for the additional $2500 PTK Scholarship offered by Undergraduate Admissions. Students must submit a letter of good standing from their advisor during the application process , and they must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.8.

Students typically qualify for a variety of federal and state programs, including the Federal Pell Grant, Federal Work Study, Stafford Loans, PLUS loans, TAP, HEOP, etc.

NYU is a participant in the Yellow Ribbon Program for post- 9/11 veterans, in addition to working with the regular G.I. Bill benefits.

Students must file the FAFSA form every year. For returning students, the deadline is March 1 every year. Students that are new or applying should complete the form and include NYU as a receiving school (code 002785) as early in the process as they can, to ensure that their aid is processed as quickly as possible.
