** Financial Aid

Financial aid is set aside for DAAPcampers with demonstrated need. Financial aid is different than a scholarship in that it intends to address financial need. To apply for financial aid, please provide the four items listed above, PLUS a statement of the family’s financial need: The statement of financial need is a confidential statement, in letter format, from the student explaining their unique situation. No financial records are required.

Please be advised that all scholarships and financial aid determination decisions are final. Each award amount is determined on a case-by-case basis, as evaluated by the DAAPcamps Scholarship Panel using student-supplied information. The Scholarship Panel is made up of camp leadership team members, faculty, and DAAP administration.

All received funds are applied directly toward DAAPcamps tuition only. Of course, applying for a scholarship or financial aid does not guarantee you will receive funding. If you think you will be unable to attend DAAPcamps without financial assistance, please note this in your application forms. Once awards are distributed, if it becomes apparent that you are unable to attend, your award will be redistributed to other deserving students. Please note that scholarship decisions, announcements and distributions will be made prior to the deadline for final camp tuition payments (May 23, 2022).
