VESTAL, N.Y. — The Mildred Faulkner Truman Foundation of Owego has awarded Binghamton University a grant of $15,000 to provide scholarship assistance to Tioga County students attending the school in the 2017-2018 academic year.
Since 1998, Truman Foundation scholarships have assisted more than 494 Tioga County students enrolled at Binghamton University. In the current academic year, 56 full- and part-time undergraduate students from Tioga County are enrolled at the university. Of those students, 47 students qualified for financial assistance.
Eligibility for this funding is based on Tioga County residency and financial necessity, which is determined by the Binghamton University Financial Aid Office through completion of a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form. This form can be obtained at any high school guidance office.
