Tuition includes:
TRANSPORTATION
For scholars traveling from the United States, economy-class, round-trip international airfare from the designated U.S. departure airport is included in the tuition. Scholars traveling from the U.S. are responsible for their own travel to the U.S. departure airport in time for program departure and return home from the U.S. departure airport at the conclusion of the Program. Those scholars traveling from other countries are responsible for making their own flight arrangements and receive adjusted tuition to accommodate for the travel costs. Tuition for all scholars covers air, rail, ship and chartered motor coach transportation for all scheduled program activities while in the host country. Please refer any questions regarding air travel to the Office of Admissions at the earliest possible date.
LODGING
Carefully selected accommodations will be used throughout the Program. These could include hotel, university and other lodging, depending on the country.
MEALS
Meals en route are provided by the airlines. On average, two meals per day are provided throughout the Program, beginning with the first overseas flight and terminating upon arrival in the United States.
TIPS AND TAXES
All tips and taxes levied by hotels, restaurants and local governments, including airport taxes, where such tips and taxes are the same for all scholars of the group, are included. Additionally, tips to guides and drivers are included.
GROUP INSURANCE
Group health and emergency health coverage for the duration of the Program is provided.
COMMUNITY FUNDRAISING
The International Scholar Laureate Program (ISLP) makes every effort to assist students with gathering funds for part or all of their tuition through fundraising and scholarships.
If you require financial assistance, ISLP has prepared a Fundraising Guide to help you raise the necessary funds within your community. In addition, the Office of Admissions is available to support you in your fundraising efforts. For more information regarding fundraising, please contact the Office of Admissions.

SCHOLARSHIP FUND
To offset the cost of tuition, ISLP has established a scholarship fund to assist scholars who wish to participate in the program. All nominated scholars are eligible to apply for these scholarship funds. In addition, Golden Key International Honour Society and Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society provide separate scholarship funds to assist their members who wish to participate in the program. Because scholarship funds are limited and demand is extremely high, several factors are considered in the allotment of awards, including financial need, academic merit and student involvement in extracurricular and volunteer activities.
The scholarship application deadline for all 2009 ISLP delegations is Wednesday, December 3, 2008. Click here to access the scholarship application. This application is used to award the general ISLP scholarships as well as the Golden Key and Phi Theta Kappa scholarships. Scholarship applicants will be considered for all awards for which they are eligible. You will need your Student ID (located on your Enrollment Application and in your Acceptance Materials) and a valid e-mail address to log in and complete the scholarship application. Using your Student ID to log in allows you to save your progress, so you do not need to complete the entire application in one sitting. After you submit your completed application, you may also log in and update or correct anything on your application up until the deadline. If you do not know your Student ID, please contact the Office of Admissions. If you do not have an e-mail address, you may register for a free e-mail account at various sites on the web, such as Yahoo!, Hotmail, and Google.
In the event that you are preliminarily granted an award, your notification letter will ask you to finalize the award through submitting a copy of the 2007 1040 Federal Income Tax Return of the individual who claimed you as a dependent. You may submit your own tax return only if no one claimed you as a dependent in 2007. Please have this form ready for mail in the event that you are tentatively offered a scholarship. The federal tax form serves as proof of financial need as indicated upon your Scholarship Application. The International Scholar Laureate Program (ISLP) and participating member organizations cannot grant any scholarship money without receiving sufficient proof of income.
If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Admissions.
