Financial Aid
If paying at the full rate would preclude you and your family from attending a conference, please inform your conference registrar. Many conferences have established scholarship programs to help in cases of hardship. For more information on these programs including deadlines and instructions for applying, see conference websites. If you are able, donations to conference scholarship funds are greatly appreciated.
Star Island Corporation also has a financial aid program and has set aside a total of $20,000 to support this effort. The confidential program is available to individuals and families that are registered for a conference and have not received a conference scholarship. Please note awards are always partial, and depend on the number of applications received. You may not receive a scholarship from both an individual conference and Star Island Corporation.
Online applications are easier for us to process quickly and accurately. Please apply online if possible. If you have trouble with the online application, you can download the application as an MS Word document.
A portion of your purchases at stores like iTunes, Amazon and Staples will be donated to Star when you shop through
