Financial Aid Makes College Possible

Most students don’t pay the full tuition price. Financial aid can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket cost and may include:

  • Federal and state grants
  • SUNY OCC scholarships
  • Work-study opportunities
  • Student loans

Our goal is to help you maximize grants and scholarships first, which is money you don’t have to pay back.
