How To Get Politically Involved



Help Increase Student Aid

The New York State Executive Budget proposes a 33% cut to the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). For students at St. Joseph's, this could mean a significant cut in financial support. St. Joseph's and other private colleges and universities across the state are supporting an electronic advocacy system hosted by Albany-based Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities (cIcu). If you feel that TAP should not be cut - make your voice heard in Albany by sending a message to your elected representatives and other leaders. Send your message.
