Suffolk Community College Foundation

Online Scholarships

Scholarships at SUNY Suffolk County Community College (SCCC) are made possible through the generosity of various individuals, student organizations, college faculty and staff, local and community groups, business firms, and through the fund-raising activities of the Suffolk Community College Foundation.

SCCC offers hundreds of scholarships for NEW and CONTINUING students. Most scholarships are awarded for the fall semester, but some scholarships are renewable for up to four semesters. Criteria for each scholarship is established by the scholarship donors, and there is no limit to the number of scholarships a student may apply for, as long as they meet the criteria.  Students are advised to apply early before the scholarship application deadlines. Deadlines are listed next to each scholarship and can be found by visiting the Online Scholarship System.Women holding a giant check for scholarship fund
