September 14, 2022

Distinguished Student Scholarship recipients will be showcased at the SUNY Niagara Foundation Scholarship Diamond Gala on Saturday, October 22, 2022 at the Niagara Falls Culinary Institute.

This award is the most prestigious scholarship offered by the SUNY Niagara Foundation to incoming Niagara County freshman. It provides two years of tuition-free education to deserving students. The individuals were selected based on their academic excellence, service to the community, and loyalty to Niagara County.

During the 2021-2022 academic year, almost $200,000 was awarded to nearly 200 deserving students. Please visit the SUNY Niagara website at https://www.niagaracc.suny.edu/scholarships for how to apply and a full listing of available scholarships. The deadline to apply for spring 2023 is Friday, October 21, 2022.
