Joan E. Savino Palladino Scholarship

Established to help support School of Education students at New Paltz. Preference will be given to applicants who graduated from Massepequa Park High School or its successor (in Nassau County, NY) or Highland High School (Ulster, NY) or a graduate of any High School located in either Nassau County, Ulster County or Dutchess County (in this order). If there is not such an applicant, consideration will be made to students who are New York state residents and meet the criteria.

The applicant must be a full-time SUNY New Paltz undergraduate enrolled in a program leading to certification in Elementary Education and have a cumulative grade average of 3.0 or higher (if returning or transfer). The recipient is allowed and encouraged to re-apply for and receive the Palladino Scholarship in successive years, as well as applying and receiving other scholarships.

(To apply to this scholarship you must complete the School of Education Conditional Application which populates when you select School of Education on the General Application).
