At the 2010 Institute...
Due to the generosity of our sponsors and private donors, several scholarships for students and teachers are available.   We are especially thankful to the locals of New York State United Teachers (NYSUT), the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights, and the Cheektowaga-Lancaster Zonta Club for their generosity.

To apply for a scholarship, please fill out a regular online application, then cut and paste the form below into an email to be sent to Summer Institute Admissions Director Stephanie Brown at summerinstituteadmissions@gmail.com

Once your application is submitted, you will be notified after registration closes on in early May to see whether you have qualified. We respectfully ask that scholarships be based on significant economic need so that we can provide them to the most deserving families.   Thank you!
