About the Scholarship

The Coronat Scholars Program is Syracuse's most competitive award for students entering the College of Arts and Sciences or the Maxwell School. It pays full tuition for four years, or five in an approved five-year programme.

Two extras make it unusually strong for someone coming from another country. Coronat Scholars get one Syracuse Abroad international study opportunity funded in full, including tuition, room and board, airfare and expenses, and can compete for funding for one summer of approved study, research or volunteer work. Admission to the Renée Crown University Honors Program and mentoring towards national scholarships come with it.

Getting considered costs nothing extra. Applying to Arts and Sciences or Maxwell puts you in the pool, and Syracuse states that merit consideration runs regardless of citizenship or country of birth. One caveat for an F-1 student: the part of the programme that tops up aid beyond tuition to meet demonstrated need depends on federal aid eligibility and a FAFSA, so plan around tuition cover plus the study abroad funding.

What It Covers

  • Tuition
  • Travel
  • Housing

Full tuition for four years of undergraduate study, or five years in an approved five-year programme. It adds full funding for one Syracuse Abroad international study opportunity, covering tuition, room and board, airfare and expenses, and competitive funding for one summer of approved study, research or volunteer work. Housing and food on the Syracuse campus stay on your own bill.

Eligibility

Students admitted to undergraduate programmes in the College of Arts and Sciences or the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs who show exceptional academics, leadership and service, and a commitment to serving others. Syracuse states that all applicants for admission are considered for merit-based scholarships regardless of citizenship or country of birth. It renews annually for the published length of the programme provided you keep a cumulative grade average of 3.0 and stay enrolled full time in Arts and Sciences or Maxwell. One component, extra aid to meet demonstrated need above the cost of tuition, is limited to students eligible for federal financial aid who file the FAFSA and the CSS Profile, which an F-1 student cannot do.
