Big Sky Scholarship Program
Who is eligible?
Families who could not otherwise afford the program can apply for
scholarship funds. See the chart below to see if your income falls
within the specified limits.
How do I apply?
Fill out the registration form and sign the Liability Agreement and
send it with payment to Big Sky Learning 1114 Hickox Street, Unit G
Santa Fe, NM 87508. You may sign up for two camps under our
scholarship program. When we receive your application we will contact
you and let you know if we have scholarships available.
How much does it cost?
Our scholarship program can offer your family cash towards your tuition at the camp. The full tuition for one camp is $318.78 (with tax). Up to $210 of that cost can be paid for you with funds from generous individuals and foundations.
Big Sky programs are very expensive to
run and very valuable for the children. We have limited scholarships
available and wish to have as many children benefit from our program as
possible. Similar programs in other states cost as much as $1000 per
week. With this in mind, we ask that you pay as much as possible.
Although the bulk of your tuition is paid for by donors you must pay
the tax on the total cost of each camp. This is $23.78 per camp
(slightly more if you take an 11-14 year old camp with additional
materials fees).
We find that families feel good when they can offer something in
return for their scholarship. Please consider donating your time to
help us at the camp or at the office.
What if I don't get a scholarship?
If we can not provide you with a scholarship we will either return your
payment or use it to hold your place in line should more scholarships
become available. If your child does not attend a camp, your money
will be refunded in whole.
