NYS Standardized Award Letter
New York Banking Law § 9-w, enacted in April 2015, requires that all New York institutions of higher education provide a uniform financial aid award information sheet when responding to an incoming or prospective student’s financial award application.
Students will be able to access this via the MyDownstate portal through the Banner Self Service in the Financial Aid section. Downstate does not have traditional four year undergraduate degree programs. We accept only upper class students to our undergraduate degree programs.
This is a sample of what the NYS Standardized Award Letter will look like.
