TAP (Tuition Assistance Program)
This New York State tuition grant program is available to full-time matriculated students who have been legal residents of New York State for at least one year. Awards, which range from $250 to the cost of tuition per semester, vary according to financial ability and may be used solely to pay the cost of tuition. Applicants applying as independent students must meet special requirements. Awards are granted for only eight semesters, SEEK students are eligible for ten semesters.
TAP requires a student to be registered for classes in his or her degree. Students are advised to use the DegreeWorks degree audit program to find the required classes needed. Students can access the DegreeWorks through the CUNY Portal. Log in at cunyportal.cuny.edu then click Student Advisement Degree Audit .
