Overview

Haystack’s scholarship program awards up to 100 scholarships annually, which are available through competitive application to those who are 18 years of age or older. There are three scholarship categories; technical assistant, work study, and minority. Applicants may seek scholarship support in more than one category. Because competition for Haystack scholarships is intense, applicants are encouraged to be selective in their choice of workshops, indicating only first and second choices. Please keep in mind that answers to the questions on the application form are an important part of the review process. Focused applications tend to be more favorably received.

In return for a grant that covers their full tuition, room, and board at the dormitory rate, work study and minority scholarship students will be assigned periodic tasks in the kitchen, or around the school campus.

All scholarship applications, complete with supporting materials, are due in receipt on March 1. Include additional copies for each workshop and scholarship you are applying for. Only the required materials along with a non-refundable $35 application fee are requested, as well as a self-addressed, stamped envelope with correct postage if you wish to have your CD or slides returned. Please do not staple your application papers—a paper clip will be fine—and do not insert them in a binder. Applications are reviewed by an independent scholarship review committee.
