SUNY Geneseo offers various scholarship opportunities for students, including merit-based, need-based, and program-specific awards. The Geneseo Foundation Scholarships are a primary source, funded by alumni and donors, covering academic excellence, leadership, and financial need. Presidential Scholarships reward high-achieving incoming freshmen with significant tuition support.
Departmental scholarships cater to specific majors, such as STEM, arts, or humanities. External options include NYS scholarships like Excelsior or TAP. Students should complete the FAFSA and Geneseo’s scholarship application annually. The Financial Aid Office provides personalized guidance, and deadlines vary, so early preparation is advised.
