Scholarships

What does it take to keep opportunity within reach?

At Hunter College, the majority of students rely on financial aid to pursue their education—and for many, scholarships make the difference between staying enrolled and stepping away. As federal support like Pell Grants faces growing uncertainty, philanthropy plays a critical role in closing the gap. Through the generosity of alumni and friends, Hunter provides millions in scholarship support each year, helping students graduate, often debt-free, and opening doors to economic mobility. This Giving Day, help us Bridge the Future by investing in scholarships that keep Hunter students on track, in the classroom, and on the path to graduation.
