I am a New York State resident, how can I apply for the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP)?
In order to be eligible for TAP, a student must first complete the FAFSA. Students can complete the TAP application at the same time they complete the FAFSA by using the link in the paragraph below the confirmation number on the final page of the FAFSA web application. If the student does not apply at that time, an email from HESC will be sent to the student with instruction for completing the online TAP application. If more than two weeks pass after you submit your FAFSA and you have not been contacted by HESC, then go to www.HESC.com. Be sure that FIT’s appropriate school code (2070 for AAS and one-year students; 0975 for BA students; and 5750 for Graduate students) is used when you fill out an application.
