Camp Scholarships
Above is a student from the Lansing Information Technology Empowerment Center (ITEC) who was able to attend camp through a partial sponsorship from LINC. LINC (now Michigan Technology Network - MITN) generously donated scholarship funds to help support two partial summer campers in the past.
There are a limited number of camp scholarships available each summer. The majority of scholarships awarded are partial scholarships that cover a portion of the day camp tuition.
Scholarships are awarded based on illustration of financial need and student's merit.
Scholarships for 2012 are now closed
Recipients will be notified shortly.
All submissions must have been received by May 1, 2012 for scholarship consideration for our Summer 2012 Camps.
How does registration and scholarships work?
A seat isn’t reserved in a camp until payment is received. We reserve a few seats in each camp for our scholarship recipients, so recipients may register once they have received notification that they received a scholarship. If you received a full camp tuition scholarship (up to $415, and does not cover residential expense), you will need to complete just the informational part of registration since your camp tuition costs are fully covered. If you received a partial scholarship, you will be asked to pay the balance remaining of the camp costs when you register. If you had already paid for the camp in full and become notified that the participating camper is also a scholarship recipient, you will be refunded the amount of the scholarship awarded. Please note scholarships are based on financial need and there are only a limited number of scholarships available. Merit is used as an evaluating criteria, but the purpose of our scholarships is to offset the burden of cost to individuals needing financial assistance to participate.
Become a Sponsor!
Currently, most media camp scholarships are internally funded by Michigan State University Pre-College Programs / Department of Telecommunication, Information Studies, & Media. Consider being a sponsor so we can offer more scholarship opportunities to students. Please visit our Camp Sponsorship page for more information.
