External Scholarships

Many scholarship opportunities exist beyond Medgar Evers College—and we encourage students to take advantage of them. One of the most impactful is the Excelsior Scholarship, which allows eligible New York State residents to attend college tuition-free at MEC and other CUNY institutions. In addition to Excelsior, students can explore external scholarships from local and national organizations that can help cover the cost of books, supplies, and more.
