Aid for Part-Time Study (APTS)

This program is for part-time students who are enrolled for 3-11 credit hours per semester, and provides an average award of $500 per semester to help pay tuition. Application forms may be obtained from the College Financial Aid Office, and the completed application must be returned to that office for processing.

To be considered a candidate for the APTS assistance, the applicant must:

1. be a New York State resident and a U.S. citizen
2. meet the income limits of $80,000 for dependent students and $34,250 for independent students.

Independent students with dependents are eligible if their income is less than $80,000. An APTS recipient must remain in good standing. The award is credited to the student's college account on a semester basis.
