The former bursar at the City College of New York was charged Tuesday with siphoning nearly $500,000 in student funds — which he then allegedly blew on exotic trips and designer goods, prosecutors said.

Joseph Boselli, 58, is accused of pocketing more than 900 checks issued to hundreds of students at the City University of New York college between August 2012 and November 2017, according to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.

Most of the checks — ranging from $4 to $3,318 — were intended to fund stipends and scholarships. Other funds were owed to college kids who had pre-paid tuition or fees prior to the school receiving a loan or other payment.
