New York Pass Education Scholarship

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the best a city has to offer, but we understand that many of these experiences can be out of reach on a student budget.

That’s why Go City is here to support U.S. and U.K. college and university students by offering free access to major New York City attractions, along with a one-time $4,000 academic scholarship award.

The scholarship prize up for grabs

The winner of the New York Pass education scholarship will receive:

1. 4x passes to check out New York’s best attractions and experiences.
2. A one-time award of $4,000 to put towards books, expenses, and any other study necessities. The cash prize will be transferred directly to the winner’s bank account.  

Mix and match 4 of the following pass types:

• The 2-day standard New York Pass (with this pass you can visit as many attractions as you wish over two days).  
• The 3-choice New York Explorer Pass (with this pass you can choose three attractions to visit, and you’ll have 60 days to visit them!).

What are the eligibility requirements?

To qualify for this scholarship, you must be enrolled at a UK or US university, and either be a citizen, permanent resident or currently studying in the UK or in the US on a student visa. Only one submission per person will be accepted.

When’s the deadline?

The scholarship competition will run from the 12:00 (GMT) on 31st of March 2025  until the 30th of June 2025 at 11:59 pm (GMT). Any submissions made after this deadline will not be considered. The winner will be selected shortly after.
