| FREE/Excellent Scholarship Summer Programs
I think we should sticky a list of completely free programs. Free can mean everything but airfare, or can mean airfare included. There are just way too many pages of random programs that are free or might be low-cost due to some catch and it's just too complicated to any newcomers here. So can we start a thread with NOTHING but free programs, or programs with excellent financial aid? We can also follow a format like:
<Title>
<For What>
<Free/Excellent Financial Aid>
<Where>
<Link>
Carleton Liberal Arts Experience
Introducing African-Americans and people of African descent to the strengths of a liberal arts education.
Free (Airfare included)

State governor's schools, TASP, TASS, RSI and MITES (I think). There are many threads devoted to specific ones.

Commonwealth Honors Academy
Rising HS seniors in "Murray State region"
Three weeks long
Courses for college credit
Free

If I get rejected from TASP, this is probably where I'm going. Not exactly prestigious, but it fits the qualifications of this thread. NOT a governor's school.
