JUNE DEADLINES
Grade 12 - Suffolk County Community College SCCC Honors Program Scholarships - Deadline 6/30/2022
An exciting scholarship opportunity from the Honors Program at Suffolk County Community College. Each year, we award several Foundation Scholarships, worth $1,500 per semester and renewable for up to four terms, exclusively to our incoming college freshman. Students are selected for these scholarships by the individual campus to which they apply, and the Eastern Campus’s Honors Program typically has a better scholarship-to-student ratio than the other two campuses.
We will award this year’s scholarships in two rounds, with the first selections coming in April. All students who have applied to the Honors Program by April 1 will be automatically considered for the first round of Foundation Scholarships. Our second round of scholarships will be awarded in June.
The easiest and quickest way to apply is by completing the application form. This fillable pdf file, along with the required supporting documents (transcript, letter of recommendation, personal statement/essay) can be emailed directly to our office at carraip@sunysuffolk.edu. Please note that SAT and ACT scores continue to be optional for the 2022-23 academic year, though we welcome these scores to be submitted with the application if available as they may be useful in scholarship consideration.
Minimum Requirements:
For entering students:
85 un-weighted average in high school
composite SAT score of 1180 or ACT Score of 24 (test-optional for 2021 admission)
For students already enrolled at Suffolk:
3.3 cumulative grade point average
In all instances, alternative evidence of academic ability may also be considered.
