NYS Assemblyman Michael Durso announced that the New York Conference of Italian-American State Legislators is accepting applications for four $3,000 scholarships, two academic and two athletic.
Scholarships are available to residents of the 9th Assembly District who are currently enrolled in a higher education program or are high school seniors entering college. Students can access and complete the application by visiting: www.nyiacsl.org/apply-for-scholarship-form
The application deadline is Friday, March 30, 2025.
“This is an excellent scholarship opportunity for high school seniors and college students in the 9th Assembly District who have worked hard, distinguished themselves from their peers and intend to pursue higher education,” said Durso. “With college costs continually rising, this is a chance to lessen the financial burden that is a concern for so many young people and their families. I encourage eligible students in my district to apply.”
Applicants need not be of Italian American heritage to apply. Scholarship recipients will be announced in April and contacted directly. Winners should plan on being in Albany on Monday, May 19 to receive their award at an Italian-American Day celebration.
For additional information, or to inquire if the student lives in the 9th Assembly District, call Durso’s office at 516-541-4598.
