Our Opportunities
Welcome to the Hudson Valley Community College Foundation Scholarship portal. We are sincerely grateful to the many alumni and friends of the College who have made these scholarships possible!
There are two applications cycles:
>The primary cycle for the Fall awards occurs the previous Spring, with applications being accepted January 30, 2025- February 28, 2025.
>The second cycle for the Second Chance Scholarship, Empire Diversity and several other scholarships occurs in the Fall, with applications being accepted Mid-September to Mid-October.
- When the application cycles are open, students sign in (top right of page) with your college issued username and password to begin the application process.
Note: You may not be able to complete all tasks easily on a mobile device. A computer is recommended. - Applicants must be accepted to or enrolled in a HVCC degree program.
- The General Application may auto match students with other opportunities that require additional steps.
- It is recommended that all applicants have a completed FAFSA on file.
Most scholarships are applied toward your Fall semester bill, unless otherwise noted.
