The State University of New York at New Paltz (SUNY New Paltz) offers various scholarship options for students, including merit-based, need-based, and program-specific awards. Merit scholarships, such as the Presidential Scholarship, recognize academic excellence, while need-based grants like the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) assist low-income students.
Departmental scholarships cater to specific majors, and external scholarships from organizations are also available. Students should complete the FAFSA to determine eligibility for federal and state aid. The SUNY New Paltz Foundation administers additional awards, and applicants are encouraged to check the university’s financial aid portal for deadlines and requirements.
