Scholarships
Scholarships for Kids' Camps and 365 SMART Academy are available for students who
qualify for Free & Reduced Lunch or one of the other programs listed below. If you are unsure if your family qualifies,
talk with your school or consult the income guidelines.
Because we want our scholarship funds to reach as many children as possible, each child is limited to one scholarship per season.
- Complete registration for the desired camps/courses
- Submit proof (e.g. screenshot or forwarded email) to summer@alaska.edu of one of the following, examples: Free & Reduced Lunch status, WIC, SNAP/EBT, Denali KidCare, or proof of current unemployment benefits. You may redact sensitive information as needed.
- Submit a photo/scan to summer@alaska.edu of a handwritten note or drawing from your child which expresses general thanks or why they want to participate in their chosen course
- Complete the digital scholarship application.
- Please note that Summer Scholarships award a maximum amount of $200 per camp or course after the deposit is paid. You are only required to submit proof once a calendar year. The award amount can cover the majority of a half-day camp, or it can partially cover the tuition of a full-day camp.
Additional information is provided on the scholarship application. Please read the application instructions carefully. If you have any questions, please call us at (907) 474-7021 or email summer@alaska.edu.
