CEEP 2019-20 Awards

Student applications for the 2019-20 Canisius Earning Excellence Program (CEEP) awards will be accepted Friday, February 1 – Friday, February 22. The CEEP program funds unique learning experiences for undergraduate students working alongside a Canisius faculty member or administrator.

A 3.3 or higher GPA is required for all applicants. College policy prevents students from receiving both CEEP and federal work-study during the academic year. Students may receive CEEP in the summer and work-study during the fall and spring or vice versa but not both in the same time period. The hourly rate for CEEP projects is $12 and students may apply for a maximum of 150 hours.

Please note, 2018-19 CEEP award recipients will need to fill out applications for the 2019-20 award. Renewal is not automatic.

More information and current online applications (opening on Friday, February 1) are available on the Academic Affairs page on the myCanisius portal.

If you have any questions regarding the award and application process, contact Emily McGorry, executive associate, Academic Affairs, at Ext. 2121.
