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 is launching pilot financial aid program for the 2010 season, 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.

The deadline for applications for conferences through August 27th has passed. The deadline for all other conferences is July 1.
