The Joseph T. Weingold Scholarship will award $3,000 scholarships annually. The scholarship is paid in installments of $1,500.00 per semester for any year the student is enrolled in college. The funds must be claimed within a four-year period from the time the scholarship was awarded. Students must be enrolled in a New York State degree program, leading to a special education certification. Students currently receiving a scholarship through The Arc New York are not eligible to receive simultaneous scholarships. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
