Mayor Zohran Mamdani is launching the city’s first undergraduate scholarship program for municipal workers, with applications opening Monday.
The Mayor’s Scholarship Program will allow full-time city employees to apply for financial assistance to pursue associate and bachelor’s degrees, in addition to advanced degrees, officials said.
The initiative expands the 60-year-old Mayor’s Graduate Scholarship Program, which has awarded city employees between about $360,000 and $530,000 a year in scholarships from participating schools, according to City Hall.
“Our city advances when our workers can too,” Mamdani said in a statement. “By connecting city workers to undergraduate and graduate educations, we’re empowering the next generation of civil servants who act ambitiously, think creatively and believe firmly in government’s ability to improve the lives of working people.”
