Capitol Scholarship Program
The Capitol Scholarship Program provides state grants to
help talented and needy students pay for college. The grant
is primarily funded by the State of Connecticut and may
also include federal funds from the Leveraging Educational
Assistance Partnership (LEAP) grant or the Special
Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership (SLEAP)
grant. It is not a merit program; priority is given to those
who are least able to contribute to college costs. Students
may use the grants at any eligible college or university
in Connecticut, and in states which have reciprocal
arrangements with Connecticut (the District of
Columbia, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont).
The Connecticut Department of Higher Education
administers the program. All inquiries and applications
should be directed to the Capitol Scholarship Program,
Connecticut Department of Higher Education at
csp@ctdhe.org or (860/947-1855).
Students should give their completed applications to their
high school guidance counselor or college admissions
officer. Counselors/Registrars should complete their part of
the application and submit the entire form by February
15th to the Connecticut Department of Higher Education.
New applicants will be notified via email about the status of
their applications by July 1st. Awards are sent directly to
colleges for deposit into student accounts. Half of the
award is sent in the fall after the college confirms a
student's eligibility and enrollment. The balance is sent to
the college in the spring following enrollment confirmation.
