Assemblymember Susan John Announces an Opportunity

for Your Son or Daughter to Attend SUNY Maritime

SUNY Maritime College has an opportunity for one student from the 131 Assembly District to receive a four-year full tuition scholarship. 

The core of the Maritime College experience is the Regiment of Cadets.  Its structured daily lifestyle instills in students a sense of honor, integrity, character, and teambuilding skills that are essential to any student’s personal growth.  In every facet of their Maritime College education, students leant to lead, and life in the Regiment builds bonds that last a lifetime. 

The College’s curriculum blends classroom instruction with three summers of international travel aboard America’s best-equipped training vessel, The Empire State VI.  Cadets polish their skills at the helm of a 565-foot ship under the guidance of licensed U.S. Coast Guard officers.  Whether plotting a course through the Straits of Gibraltar or maintaining the sophisticated power plant of a floating city, cadets are responsible for all areas of ship operations.  The cultivation of knowledge and respect for world cultures compliments cadets’ responsibilities aboard ship; upon graduation, cadets will have visited nine international and three domestic ports-of-call. 

Intercollegiate athletic competition has long been a tradition at Maritime College and the College is steadfastly committed to its high-caliber athletic programs.  The College fields 24 varsity teams in five different conferences, including football, baseball, basketball, lacrosse, swimming, softball, soccer, volleyball, cross-country, rifle and pistol.  The College has attained national prominence in crew and sailing.

This is a great opportunity for any student; not just to start college, but to launch a life.
