Dominican College Scholarships and Grants
Renewable scholarships, grants, and awards of varying amounts are available each year to incoming freshmen and transfer students who show evidence of superior scholastic ability.
These awards from institutional funds represent a distinct honor to the recipient. Scholarships, grants, and awards are given for full-time attendance in Day and Evening programs.
To be considered for a scholarship, an applicant must:
- File an application for admission and be accepted to Dominican College.
- Have the results of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (S.A.T.) or the American College Testing (A.C.T.) Assessment Test forwarded to Dominican College (freshmen only);
- Submit high school or college transcripts;
- File a Free Application for Federal Student Aid, available on the web (www.fafsa.ed.gov);
- Apply for the New York State Tuition Assistance Program (T.A.P.) if a New York State resident.
Note: A commuter student may not receive institutional funds in excess of the difference between tuition and NY State T.A.P.
