On-Campus Housing

An important benefit of the Institute is the opportunity for teachers to get to know other teachers with similar interests and concerns. We encourage you to stay on campus during the Institute in order to make the most of this opportunity. Housing is in one of our newest residence halls. Arranged in apartment style suites and semi-private baths, our residence halls have elevators and are fully air-conditioned. A kitchenette is available in most suites. The housing cost includes housing and meals for the week which includes breakfast, lunch and dinner Monday through Thursday, and breakfast on Friday. A limited number of single occupancy rooms are available on a first come, first served basis. As an added bonus, family members and other guests can stay on campus with you. Contact our office for details.

Those who do not want to stay in campus housing are welcome to commute from home or nearby hotels.

Meals

The cost of all meals is included in the housing cost for those who chose to stay on campus.

Those who chose to commute receive lunch and refreshment breaks each day. All other meals are the responsibility of each individual. The college cafeteria is open for all who wish to dine on campus.

Financial Assistance

2012 College Board Fellowship Program

The College Board AP Fellows program is an annual competitive grant program that provides scholarships for secondary school teachers planning to teach AP courses in schools that serve minority and/or low-income students who have been traditionally underrepresented in AP courses. The scholarships assist teachers with the cost of attending an AP Summer Institute. For a teacher to qualify, one of these must be true of the teacher's school:

Fifty percent or more of the student population must consist of traditionally underrepresented students of color (African American, Hispanic, or Native American)

Fifty percent or more of the student population must consist of students whose average family income level is equivalent to, or below, the national annual average for a low-income family of four (approximately $36,000)

The Summer Institutes provide an excellent opportunity for teachers to gain command of a specific AP subject and to receive up-to-date information on the latest curriculum changes. Each 2012 College Board AP Fellow will be offered a scholarship of $1,000 to attend a College Board–endorsed AP Summer Institute.

Application deadline: February 15, 2012.
