Additional Information
The SUNY Poly Foundation, in partnership with Akademos, can assist students experiencing a financial hardship in purchasing books and course materials through its one-time Educational Assistance Program. Awards are provided on a first-come, first-served basis while funding is available. Students who are awarded support in the form of an Akademos voucher, must complete the application in the link below.
Awards range between $50-$100. This award is not part of your institutional financial aid package and is not administered through the financial aid office.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program provides assistance to eligible individuals in the form of electronically issued benefits. As a SUNY Poly student, you may be eligible for SNAP benefits. These benefits can be used to purchase food.
To find out more about SNAP or to have an eligibility review, please contact Silkia Soler at 315-272-2908 or email ssoler@rcil.com.
The Poly Pantry is proud to provide access to refrigerated lockers that expand our students’ ability to access food and hygiene supplies outside of our operating hours.
Students can place an order via our Microsoft Form. Once the order is received, we will pick the ordered goods (subject to availability) and place them in the locker.
The lockers are located in Kunsela Hall which is open 24/7.
