Our mission is to ensure that every eligible Guttman student has access to the financial resources they need to attain their college education. A college education is one of the best investments you can make, but the cost can often put a strain on your finances.  Our office is committed to helping students complete the financial aid process and ensure that every eligible Guttman student has access to the financial resources needed to attain a post-secondary education.

We also strive to provide professional services to help remove financial barriers for students to achieve their academic goals.

Financial Aid counseling is available via Starfish appointments with a Financial Aid representative. Students can also attend Applying for Financial Aid Workshops to receive one-on-one assistance completing their financial aid applications.

 “Student Right to Know:” The Consumer Information page provides prospective and current students, parents, counselors, researchers, legislators, and employers access to information to enable consumers to make informed decisions about post-secondary education at Guttman Community College, The City University of New York.
