Finding Other Sources
of Aid for Attendance at Queens College
Aid awarded through the Financial
Aid Office is based primarily on financial need. The following resources
at Queens College might be helpful in finding private scholarships,
other merit-based grant awards, and non-work-study jobs:
-
Financial Aid Office bulletin boards
(Jefferson Hall - 2nd floor hallway)
-
Undergraduate Admissions Office and
their website at http://www.qc.edu/admissions/scholarships.php
for awards to entering undergraduate students
-
Graduate Admissions Office and their
website at http://www.qc.edu/gadm/awards.htm
for awards to graduate students.
-
Office of Honors and Scholarships
(Honors Center / Temp 2), and their website at http://www.qc.edu/scholar/index.html;
the office is also an important resource for nationwide scholarships and
fellowships for students applying to graduate school programs.
-
Academic department listings of their
awards in the Undergraduate
and Graduate Bulletins and on their websites.
Many of these are prizes awarded at graduation, but some are awards to
continuing students.

Academic departments and pre-professional
advisement offices.
- International
Student Services (Frese Hall / B Building - Room 211) for important
information for students attending or planning to attend on student visas.
- Office of Career Development and Internships (Frese Hall / B Building - Room 213) and their website at http://qcpages.qc.cuny.edu/career/ for jobs not funded by the work-study program.
