Syracuse adds acceptance, scholarship benefit for eligible SUPA participants

This year, Liberty Central School District began a partnership with Syracuse University to offer Syracuse University Project Advance to Liberty High School Students. SUPA offers advanced courses for college credit. Biology 1 and 2 is being offered at Liberty this year, with Chemistry to be added for the  2025-26 school year.

An added benefit recently announced by Syracuse University is “Guaranteed Orange,” the opportunity to have guaranteed acceptance into Syracuse University’s College of Arts and Science with a $20,000 per year tuition scholarship for eligible students.

“We were excited to partner with Syracuse University on SUPA,” Superintendent Dr. Patrick Sullivan said. “This additional benefit can have a huge positive impact on the college and career choices of our students who chose to participate.”

To be eligible for “Guaranteed Orange,”  students must have completed or plan to complete at least six credit hours through SUPA, Syracuse University Summer College or Accelerated Semester Online by the end of their high school senior spring semester, have a 3.0 grade-point average in the courses completed, have an overall high school GPA of 3.7 or higher and apply to Syracuse University by the deadline of Nov. 15 for Early Decision or Jan. 5 for regular decision or Early Decision II.
