With the backing of a program like Kaye, many academic doors have been opened for me, if not solely through the program, through the extra boost of confidence that Kaye has given me as well."

“City College used to be free until 1975. Unfortunately, I enrolled here in 2006 and yet, even though we need such crucial programs as the Kaye Scholarship to support aspiring working-class college students, the exciting history of student radicalism at this school can hopefully one day win back free tuition.”

“The Kaye is a shining example of meritocracy and fairness. It also has the effect of giving one that extra nudge to work that much harder at his goals. It keeps you in check – and of course, helps keep us afloat! I am grateful for what I have received from the gracious people behind this program.”
