The College of New Jersey awards the Lions Pride Need Award to merit scholarship recipients among the incoming first-year class who demonstrate financial need. Students must submit the FAFSA by February 15th to be considered. The Office of Student Financial Assistance will work with the Office of Admissions to review FAFSA data before awarding this grant.
Award amounts will be based on available institutional funds and the number of qualified candidates who successfully submit the FAFSA. Awards are designed to supplement a student’s current merit scholarship.
