We are no longer accepting financial assistance applications for Summer 2011. The number of requests for assistance has exceeded our availability of funding.
For families interested in learning about other scholarship opportunities and fundraising ideas, please visit www.giftedstudy.com/fundraising.asp.
SIG/NSGT is pleased to be able to offer financial assistance to some students who wish to attend our program and ask that you please read the following information carefully before applying for financial assistance from SIG/NSGT.
Availability of SIG/NSGT financial assistance varies by campus and is not intended to cover the total cost of the student’s attendance at SIG. Financial assistance awards serve as the final payment on your account and are not attributed until all other fees are paid. Following the submission of your application for assistance, you must continue to adhere to the SIG payment schedule as outlined in our catalog while you are awaiting our decision. SIG/NSGT accepts financial assistance applications beginning December 1.
Financial assistance is offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Once funds are exhausted, assistance is no longer available to families*. Be sure to submit your application early. Each year, the requests for assistance far exceed the amount of funds NSGT/SIG has available for students.
Unfortunately, we are NOT able to offer financial assistance to all applicants and very rarely are we able to provide a full scholarship. Families are encouraged to apply as early as possible to increase their chance for consideration.
SIG/NSGT is also pleased to work with other organizations and foundations to provide financial assistance. To apply for these funds, you will need to fill out the financial assistance application available on our website. You are automatically entered in the pool of applicants for funds being awarded this year when you complete this application and return it to the SIG office in Stamford. Scholarship award decisions are based on the financial documents provided by you with your application.
All financial assistance and scholarship recipients will be notified of the type and amount of award by mail. To qualify for assistance, you must send a completed SIG program application and include the non-refundable $95 SIG application fee. Applications for financial assistance and the SIG application form will not be processed until the application fee is paid.
* A notice will be posted on this page of the website once funds are depleted.
