Seventy-five scholarships will be awarded at any one time.

Description of Scholarships
The scholarships are awarded to students that demonstrate financial need in coordination with other assistance programs including Governor Pataki's World Trade Center Memorial Scholarship program, TAP for New York residents, and other scholarships and grants. The difference between these funds and the Pace tuition will be provided by the Pace University Remembers Scholarship.

Who is Eligible
Those eligible for awards will be spouses, partners, sons and daughters of any victim of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and Flight 93 in Pennsylvania. In addition, current students who lost a parent or a spouse or partner in the attacks will be eligible.

Undergraduate, Graduate and Law Admissions Requirements
Students must meet undergraduate, graduate and law admissions standards and be admitted first before consideration for the scholarship fund. After you have been accepted to the university you must follow the application procedures for the scholarship.

In order to continue to receive the Pace University Remembers Scholarship students must be in good academic standing and demonstrate continued financial need.
