ALBANY, NY, UNITED STATES, April 18, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Excelsior University today announced $400,000 in funds for new scholarship opportunities. These scholarships will be exclusively available to students attending Excelsior's Summer 1 term, enrolling now through May 5.
“Excelsior’s mission is to remove barriers to higher education,” said
According to a 2024 Gallup poll, cost is the leading reason Americans do not complete higher education degrees. 87% of those polled said that cost is a “very” or “moderately” important reason that they are not currently enrolled in postsecondary education.
With Excelsior projecting to close its fiscal year with a surplus, the University’s leadership chose to immediately award more than $400,000 to students with financial need through scholarships.
“This fiscal year to date, Excelsior University has awarded and disbursed 965 scholarships, totaling $511,354,” said Christine Morris, Excelsior University executive director of student financial services. “We will approach $1 million awarded in scholarships with these additional funds. Our financial aid team is committed to working with every student to find solutions, ensuring that cost won’t stand in the way of their academic goals.”
