Nearly one-third of Oswego students are the first in their family to attend college, and 41 percent receive Pell Grants intended for students with exceptional need.
“On behalf of the students who benefit from the Novelis Path Forward Scholarships, I want to thank Novelis for helping us bridge the financial gap for students so that they can pursue their higher education goals, change the course of their lives and often the lives of their families, and cross the threshold into a world of new opportunities,” Deborah Stanley, president of SUNY Oswego, said.
