New York Tech International Leadership Scholarship

About this scholarship

The New York Tech International Leadership Scholarship is a major undergraduate tuition scholarship for talented international students entering New York Institute of Technology. The official award page states that the scholarship is worth more than $190,000 as full tuition for four years of full-time undergraduate study, but it does not include room and board. It is therefore recorded as partial funding even though the tuition portion is fully covered. The scholarship is available only to first-year, full-semester applicants. Candidates must complete both the New York Tech admission application and the International Leadership Scholarship form by the deadline listed in the application materials. The selection materials focus on leadership, goals, and service: applicants need a GPA of 3.5 or higher, a one-page essay, a CV or resume documenting 25 to 50 hours of community service or volunteer experience, and two letters of recommendation. One recommendation must verify volunteer or community service experience, and one must come from a teacher, counselor, or principal nominating the student for the award. International applicants must also satisfy New York Tech English proficiency and visa-documentation rules.
