New York State Aid
New York State offers many financial aid programs to assist students with meeting their educational expenses. FLCC students received over $4 million in New York State grants and scholarships for 2018-19.
Excelsior Scholarship
The Excelsior Scholarship program will provide tuition-free college at New York State's public colleges and universities to New Yorkers making up to $125,000 in 2019.
Determining eligibility for the Excelsior Scholarship is a two-part process. After applying for the scholarship through HESC, you'll receive a notification regarding your status. If you have met HESC's requirements, your information will be sent to FLCC for further review. FLCC will then review transcripts and other documentation and your current financial aid awards, and if you meet the scholarship requirements, you will receive notification from FLCC confirming your eligibility and the amount of your Excelsior scholarship.
Recipients of the Excelsior Scholarship may receive the award up to actual tuition. The maximum Excelsior Scholarship will be reduced by the amount of student grant and scholarship awards an applicant will receive for the academic year.
