Cornell Programs
Academic Scholarships are awarded to the most academically prepared first-year students as measured by academic standards, leadership, and community service. The awards are automatically renewed for three years if the recipient maintains a grade point average of 3.0 or higher. Cornell's academic scholarships include: William Fletcher King, Presidential, Distinguished Honor, Honor, Pacesetter, High School Distinction Award, and Community College.
Fine Arts Scholarships are awarded to students displaying superb talent and potential in the arts. Selection of art scholars is based upon a review of an art portfolio. The selection of music scholars is based upon auditions held on campus. Acceptance and renewal of the Horace Alden Miller Scholarship or the Dungan Music Scholarship requires that each semester the recipient take music lessons and participate in at least one ensemble. Cornell's fine art scholarships include: George E. Buzza, Cornell Art, E.E. Dungan Music, Horace Alden Miller Music, and Music Recognition Award Scholarships.
Ministerial Awards are available to children of ordained clergy, regardless of denomination, as long as the clergy's chief employment is either in a parish ministry or a ministry directly supported by the church. Awards are based upon financial need as determined by the federal needs analysis system and institutional policies.
Cornell Grants/Endowed Scholarships are funds made available by the College and are based on the financial need of the student. Grant amounts may vary each year depending upon financial need.
Institutional Work Study provides on-campus employment opportunities for students who do not demonstrate financial need.
McElroy Loans (which last for one month) and Sherman Loans (which last for one year) are low interest loans awarded through a trust fund established with Cornell. Repayment begins six months after graduation, withdrawal, or a drop to less than half-time enrollment.
