* The president’s office handles the JFK and MLK awards- the recipients’ names are printed in the commencement book and they are mailed a check, a certificate, and a letter. The president’s liaison on the committee, Veronica Lukas, sends the information to the president’s office. Student Affairs handles the Ray Rickett’s award while Student Government handles the Day and Evening Incentive awards. The recipients’ names are printed in the commencement book, and they are mailed a check, certificate, and letter. Veronica Lukas sends the information to the VP for Student Affairs office.
**The Chai Ho and F.Y. Chiu Scholarship awardees are recommended by the Coordinator of the Chinese language program and then the Awards and Scholarship committee review those recommendations, approve, and then return the selections to the language program coordinator. The Jackson and Muriel Lum Endowment Scholarship awardees are likewise recommended by a committee of Engineering Technology department members, who then send to the Awards and Scholarship committee for review, who then make recommendations.

- Continuing Student Academic Merit Scholarship
This scholarship is given to current and continuing students who have demonstrated outstanding academic performance (a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.25 required). In the Fall 2022 semester 1 student was awarded $1,000, and 8 students awarded smaller amounts ranging from $57 to $901. In the Spring 2023 semester awards of $1,000 each were given to 22 students (new applicants as well as Fall 2022 applicants qualifying for continued funding in the Spring 2023), and 7 awards ranging from $146 to $805. The QCC Merit winners are awarded a variety of "named scholarships" that represent the pool of funds that have been donated to the college and are available to award via the QCC Merit program. You will find that some students are receiving more than one "named" award, which is listed alongside the student’s name below.

To Selection Committee,
My name is John Smith and I am a second semester student, majoring in Theater Arts, at Queensborough Community College. My high academic standing, service to the community, and theatrical accomplishments make me the ideal candidate to receive this award. I am writing this letter to express my interest in receiving the Academic Merit Scholarship for Spring 2022. This award will eliminate financial hardship and will be important to my future academic success.
I currently volunteer as an afterschool tutor at The School for Success, the middle school I attended, and I serve as a mentor to young men from my community church. In addition, I am a member of the ABC Theatre company where we create, develop and present local theatrical productions. This experience has not only provided insight into what it takes to put on a theatrical production from the front of the stage, but also from the backstage. It too has allowed me to visualize what my future could look like. Looking forward, I see my future is bright, and this award will allow me to pursue my goals and dreams.
I aspire to be an actor. Unfortunately, at this time of my college career, my family is experiencing financial hardship. The scholarship will be very useful because it will allow me to continue my study in theater arts without the financial problems that would have prevented me from continuing at Queensborough. Please be assured, I will not disappoint the Awards and Scholarship Committee and the decision to award me the scholarship.
Sincerely,
John Smith
Committee recommendations for upcoming year
Challenges
- The window for application review is still very small and aligns with finals week, which makes it difficult to assess 100+ applications for all members.
Recommendations / To Do
- Spread out awards deadlines to give committee more time for application review.
- Consider how to address AI-generated application essays.
Individual member contributions and thanks
Acknowledgements
Thank you to all members for their time and commitment to the work of the committee. My fellow committee members made this year smooth and pleasurable!

The committee would like to give special thanks to Veronica Lukas for keeping the committee abreast of all scholarship updates and helping the chair navigate the application review process. Thank you to the staff, Sophia Mackey, for creating new accounts for new members and sharing students’ applications digitally on a rolling basis via Teams, which helps to evaluate the applicants in a timely matter.
