Incredibly immersive, and profound experience! So glad I got to share and explore a new area of study with people from different ages and backgrounds. I had an outstanding teaching team! Grateful and lucky for all their support and dedication during the 6 weeks of the program.

Financial Assistance
CED Summer Programs have a small number of need-based scholarships and stipends available to accepted students. These need-based scholarships are available for US citizens or permanent residents only. CED Summer Program financial assistance is not federally subsidized.
Following are the specific requirements for financial assistance consideration:
- The funds are need-based awards, which means that funding is based on the financial situation of the student (and their parents, if applicable).
- The program application AND the financial assistance application must be submitted before the deadline in order to be considered for financial aid. See the table above for the financial assistance application deadline.
- Program applicants must indicate their interest in receiving financial assistance with the submission of their program application in SlideRoom.
- Upon acceptance into the program, applicants that indicated an interest in receiving financial assistance will be sent a link to the scholarship application.
- Requests for financial assistance will not be considered without a complete program application. Late financial assistance applications will only be considered if financial assistance funds have not been depleted or if additional funds become available.
- Award amounts vary. Applicants who are offered financial support are expected to inform us immediately if they plan on accepting it.
- Applicants who receive a partial scholarship (stipend) will be required to pay the full balance of the program fees prior to the start of the program.
- Since funds are limited, we encourage interested students to apply to the program as early as possible in order to meet the financial assistance deadline and before funds are exhausted (which could occur before the scholarship application deadline).
Applicants should plan accordingly and make sure that their program application and all required documents are submitted via SlideRoom by the financial assistance application deadline. We cannot guarantee that all applicants who apply for aid will receive financial assistance.
