Learn more about studying Psychology/School Counseling as an international student.
What New York Institute of Technology says about their program:
Delve into the human mind through the Psychology, B.S. in small-sized classes on theories of personality, abnormal psychology, and more. New York Tech’s degree offers you plenty of flexibility through electives and minors, or even prepare for entry into medical school.
After three years of undergraduate studies, students who have established a record of academic excellence may apply to transition into our graduate school counseling program. Our CACREP-accredited M.S. in School Counseling is nationally recognized for the quality of its faculty and the preparation of its graduates to meet criteria for provisional certification as a school counselor in New York State.
You’ll gain a broad foundation on prevalent topics in school counseling today, including leadership, group counseling, working with special needs students, college counseling, and school violence prevention. You’ll also acquire the critical experience you need through a practicum and internships under the mentorship of a tenured school counselor in a pre-K–12 school setting.

New York Tech automatically reviews every incoming first-year application for merit-based awards such as the Presidential Scholarship, Theodore K. Steele Memorial Scholarship, Merit Scholarships, and Academic Achievement Awards. For international undergraduate applicants specifically, these awards range from about $20,000 to $31,000 per year based on GPA and academic record, and are renewable for up to four years provided the required cumulative GPA is maintained. The university's own scholarships page explicitly lists a separate award range for international students (distinct from the U.S./permanent resident range), confirming that non-domestic first-year undergraduates are eligible without needing FAFSA or a separate scholarship application.
The International Leadership Scholarship is New York Tech's premier award for incoming international undergraduate students, valued at more than $190,000 and covering full tuition (excluding room and board) for four years of full-time study. It was created specifically to recognize and support talented international students, so eligibility is explicitly limited to first-year, full-time international applicants. Candidates must hold a GPA of 3.5 or higher, submit a one-page essay on their leadership qualities and future goals, document 25-50 hours of community service or volunteer work, and provide two recommendation letters (one from a volunteer supervisor and one from an educator or administrator).
