New York Student Aid Alliance

This weekend New York's lawmakers passed a student-focused 2018-19 state budget that includes funding for important student aid programs. We applaud lawmakers for choosing to #StandUp4StudentAid in this year's budget. Read more here: https://www.cicu.org//statement-cicu-president-2018-19-new

With final state budget negotiations underway, 1.2 million college students across New York are counting on NY’s lawmakers to #StandUp4StudentAid and restore funding for Bundy Aid + opportunity programs and expand #STEM scholarships. You can join the chorus of people urging policymakers to prioritize student aid funding by sending an email to key elected officials.

Congratulations to the Class of 2021 and welcome to college in New York State!

The Excelsior Scholarship, while on the right track of making college affordable, falls short. The nearly half a million students enrolled at private, not-for-profit colleges and universities will be left out. Enrollment could drop by 54,000 and 45,000 jobs could be lost, with dire effects on local economies. http://bit.ly/2mO7EQz #LimitlessLearningNY
