Ithaca College

 The Office of Student Engagement and Multicultural Affairs is now accepting applications from current IC students to be considered for the Ithaca Achievement program for the upcoming 2016-2017 academic year.

The Ithaca Achievement Program is a community of ALANA/ students of color dedicated to academic success, leadership development, professional advancement, and civic engagement.  Participants engage in a variety of educational, cultural, social, and community service opportunities to enhance their success as an achiever.  The Achievers progress through 4 phases during their time at IC.

•  EXPLORING
• EMERGING
• ADVANCING
• TRANSITIONING

Successful completion of the program within that academic year and maintaining a 3.0 grade point average, will deem the Achiever "Active" and "program eligible" for a $1000.00 scholarship to be applied to their financial aid package for the following year.  Additionally, in order to be financially eligible for the IAP scholarship, the student must have filed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA); and, have unmet need and/or have need-based loan(s) such as a subsidized Stafford loan or Perkins loan in their aid package.  If you are unsure as to whether you would be eligible to receive the scholarship, please contact the Office of Financial Aid at 800-429-4275. The intent of the IAP scholarship is to help students reduce need-based loan debt and/or to fill in the gap between other aid offered and the expected family contribution.
