-In addition to a feeling of mild embarrassment, there are other actual benefits to the designation. As a scholar in [[CUSP]], they are eligible for grants through independent summer research fellowships. The program also provides funding to supplement unpaid summer internships as well as research assistantships. The application processes for the above are strenuous, but not considered particularly difficult to obtain the offered fellowships.

 Some people find the program lectures, professor forums, and seminars enjoyable social and/or intellectual opportunities. There is no money officially associated with the award because no [[Ivy League]] school may offer merit scholarships. Nevertheless, John Jay Scholars unofficially always receive grants in lieu of loans in their financial aid packages. For some this amounts to a huge scholarship, but for others the difference is negligible.
