Admission Criteria
Students must be in 10th grade at the time of application and going into 11th grade in Fall 2021. Please note that admitted students will have to provide evidence of health insurance and vaccination records before attending the program.
Ideal Candidates
Ideal candidates should:
- Have an interest in AI (no previous AI or programming background is required).
- Have leadership skills and the potential to make broader impact.
- Be passionate about creating an inclusive and diverse environment.
Financial Aid
- Admission is need-blind for all applicants. We are will be soliciting financial forms only after you are admitted.
- This aid will be offered in the form of partial and full scholarships. Aid is granted based upon need, and comes in the form of a grant (i.e. it is not expected to be repaid).
- Need is determined through a careful review of each family’s individual financial circumstances. The deadline for financial aid is Sunday, April 25, 2021. We will be requesting the following information:
- Previous year's tax return
- Previous year's W-2
- Short summary describing the need for financial aid (especially if outside the boundaries of the household income guideline below)
- The full need of every admitted student is met through a combination of tuition reduction and travel assistance. Assuming the financial aid application is submitted in full by the deadline, we are committed to (*all figures will be prorated if a reduction in the case of a reduction in tuition due to a virtual program):
- Full tuition waiver plus assistance with travel expenses for all families with combined household income less than $80,000 per year
- Reduced tuition to $2,000 for all families with combined household income less than $110,000 per year
- Reduced tuition to $4,000 for all families with combined household income less than $140,000 per year
This guarantee is made possible thanks to generous support from the Princeton Computer Science Department, Princeton Center for Information Technology Policy, AI4ALL Organization, Princeton School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Princeton Center for Statistics and Machine Learning, and the Princeton Office of Information Technology. We will consider additional considerations beyond those outlined above to ensure that every admitted student is able to participate. Note that we are not able to make exceptions to the financial aid deadline, so it is vital that all materials are submitted on time to qualify for aid.
Tuition
Tuition for the 2021 virtual Princeton AI4ALL is reduced to $1,500. All aid will be prorated based on the formula above for our regular in-person tuition ($6,000). Extensive financial aid is available.
