Kaye Scholars Program, for Undergraduates in Humanities & the Arts, applications due March 15

Dear Students: The H. Austin and Florence R.S. Kaye Foundation has joined with City College to provide
funds for a program to attract and support talented students who are pursuing a major in the Humanities & Arts.
Kaye Scholars will be chosen by a panel of City College faculty on the basis of:
• academic merit
• creative promise
• financial need
Recipients of Kaye Scholarships must, in order to maintain the award:
• be full time undergraduate students (taking a minimum of 12 credits) at City College
• maintain a 3.0 GPA
• pursue a major in the Division of Humanities & Arts (American Studies, Art, Asian Studies, Black Studies, Comparative Literature, English, Classical and Modern Languages and Literatures, History, Jewish Studies, Media and Communication Arts, Music, Philosophy, or Theatre and Speech). No other major is acceptable.
• Second degree students are not eligible to apply to the Kaye Scholars Program.

Benefits: Stipends equal to in-state tuition per semester (currently approximately $7,400 per year). Timetable: The deadline for applications from students who are currently enrolled at City College is March 15th. And, most importantly: How to apply!
To apply students must complete the College’s General Scholarship Application online and indicate that they want to be considered for the Kaye Scholars Program.
Next, once a student has completed the General Scholarship Application, they continue on to the specific application page for the Kaye Scholars Program, page 9.
