纽约州立大学(State University of New York)是美国纽约州的一个由诸多大学组成的大学系统，并非独立的大学。纽约州立大学成立于1816年，目前由64个学院(分校)组成。纽约州立大学专门为各个学院(分校)学生提供的科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金(STEM Scholarship)。该奖学金的具体情况是怎样的呢?一起来看看出国留学网的介绍。
New York State (NYS) STEM Scholarship
The New York State (NYS) STEM scholarship is an award that covers SUNY or CUNY undergraduate resident tuition. If your school district identified you to the NYS Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC) as being in the top ten percent of your NYS high school graduating class, you may meet initial eligibility requirements to complete the STEM scholarship application.
POINTS TO CONSIDER PRIOR TO ACCEPTING A STEM SCHOLARSHIP:
1. Are you planning on going to a State University of New York (SUNY) or CUNY college or university, studying in a STEM program of study and working in a STEM career in NYS after graduation? To be eligible, a NYS student graduating in the top ten percent of their class from a NYS high school must:
• Attend a SUNY or CUNY college or university
• Be a NYS resident
• Enroll in a two year or four year program of study that meets the approved STEM requirements and maintain a 2.5 average
• Earn a degree from a SUNY or CUNY in an approved STEM program
• Find employment in an approved STEM career in NYS
• Continue to work in an approved STEM career for five years following graduation in New York State
2. Are you a NYS Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) recipient? You may want to determine whether the STEM scholarship is beneficial for you, considering the five year NYS service requirement after you graduate from college. The STEM scholarship covers resident SUNY undergraduate tuition. If you receive a significant TAP grant, you should know the TAP grant is applied to your tuition bill before the STEM scholarship. This may result in a low STEM award - or none at all if you are receiving a full TAP grant.
3. Your college will certify your scholarship eligibility after the end of each term. Students will need to find another source to pay their tuition if the campus is unable to certify eligibility resulting in no award for that term. Additionally, scholarship funds received may revert to an immediate repayable loan on the part of the student. Circumstances under which the campus will be unable to certify your eligibility:
• Failure to meet the 2.5 cumulative average following each term after the first term of your freshman year. You may be able to regain eligibility in a future term if you fail to meet the eligibility in a current or prior term.
• Changing your major out of an approved STEM program
4. Conditions under which a scholarship that has been certified by your campus becomes a loan, which must be repaid:
• Changing your major out of an approved STEM program at any point prior to graduation
• Entering the workforce after graduation in a non-approved STEM career
• Moving out of NYS before completing the five year service requirement in an approved STEM career
5. If you are still uncertain whether you want to apply for this scholarship after reviewing the information in this document, you can review additional information detailing the STEM scholarship on the HESC website and contact your campus financial aid office to discuss the terms of eligibility.
纽约州立大学科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金
纽约州立大学科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金是一项涵盖纽约州立大学或纽约城市大学本科居民学生学费的奖学金。如果你的学区在向纽约州高等教育服务公司报告中将你鉴定为纽约州高中毕业班前百分之十顶尖的学生，那么你可能符合科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金申请的初步资格要求。
在接受科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金之前有以下几点要考虑：
1.你是否打算去纽约州立大学或纽约城市大学高校系统中的学院或大学学习?是否想学科学、技术、工程和数学相关专业，是否想毕业后在纽约州从事科学、技术、工程和数学行业?为了符合资格，除了从纽约州高中毕业的时候成绩达到前百分之十，你还必须满足以下：
(1)在纽约州立大学或纽约城市大学高校系统中的学院或大学就读;
(2)注册两年制或者四年制的满足奖学金要求的课程，并且平均绩点保持在2.5;
(3)从纽约州立大学或纽约城市大学高校系统中的学院或大学中拿到符合奖学金要求的课程的学位;
(4)毕业后在纽约州从事科学、技术、工程和数学行业五年。
2.你获得过纽约州学费援助项目奖学金吗?你可以需要明确科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金是否对你有利，需要考虑毕业后在纽约州工作五年的要求。科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金涵盖纽约州立大学本科居民学生学费。如果你获得了学费援助项目奖学金，那么你应该知道该项目奖学金在科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金之前适用于你的学费账单。这可能会导致你获得的科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金减少，或者干脆得不到——如果你获得的学费援助项目奖学金是全额奖学金的话。
3.你的学院会在每个学期结束之后对你的奖学金资格进行核实。如果学校无法核实你的资格(这会导致你在该学期不能获奖)，那么你将需要寻找其他渠道的资金来缴纳学费。除此以外，奖学金有可能代你将资金返还到需要立即偿还的贷款中。
学校无法核实你的资格的情况有如下：
(1)在大一第一学期之后，每学期未能满足2.5的累积平均绩点要求。如果你在当前学期或者前一个学期没能满足资格，你还可以在往后的学期重新获得资格。
(2)换专业，换到了科学、技术、工程和数学以外的专业。
4.奖学金在被学校核实之后变成了需要偿还的贷款的情况有如下：
(1)在毕业之前的任意时候换了专业，换到了科学、技术、工程和数学以外的专业;
(2)毕业后从事的行业不属于得到批准的科学、技术、工程和数学行业;
(3)在完成五年的服务要求之前离开纽约州。
5.如果你在看了上面的信息之后仍然不确定是否想申请这项奖学金，那么你可以到纽约州高等教育服务公司网站查看奖学金详情，可以联系你们学校的经济援助办公室就资格条款进行商讨。
