Dear Jim,
There's a lot of excitement around Shad Valley 2009! A quick reminder:
* Our final intake date for applications is Wednesday, January 14,
2009 (or post-marked January 14). Students can submit their
applications up to Jan. 14.
* We have 100 entrance scholarships (25 x $2500 and 75 x $1000)
available to students, awarded based on the strength of their
application.
* We also offer financial support for those who qualify.
* Admission to Shad Valley is competitive, and not all applicants

As well as enjoying the month-long Shad Valley program, another

Many universities and colleges, businesses, and organizations offer scholarships, bursaries and awards that you may seek out through advertisements, word of mouth, and the internet.

As we approach the end of the school year scholarships, bursaries and awards start appearing quickly and often will have shorter deadline dates.
