Hostos Community College Named One
Of Top 10 Finalists For The 2015 ASPEN Prize
For Community College Excellence

Eugenio Mar�a de Hostos Community College of The City University of New York (CUNY) was named as one of 10 finalists for the Aspen Prize for Community College Excellence. This is the nation's preeminent recognition of high achievement and performance in America's community colleges.

Hostos now enters the final stage of competition for the $1 million prize that will be awarded to the winner and up to four finalists-with-distinction in March 2015 in Washington, D.C. Making this recognition even more special is the fact that Hostos is the only community college in New York State to reach this point in the selection process.
