If you know a high school journalism student that might be interested in a 10 day learning experience, please pass this along. This opportunity get's missed each year because the word doesn't get out. This is an awesome opportunity that should not be missed due to lack of awareness.

A 10-day all-expenses- paid summer journalism program will be held in August at Princeton University for students from under resourced financial backgrounds. All application materials are available at www.princeton.edu. All expenses, including travel costs to and from Princeton , will be paid for.

The program is also designed to give students a taste of what life is like at one of the best colleges in the country - students live on campus and eat in one of the university's cafeterias. Students meet with the Princeton University 's president and the school's dean of admissions - people who are able to offer guidance on the difficult decisions about college that high school students face. The program is staffed by young alumni of Princeton, current Princeton students, and students who attended the program in past summers.

To apply for the program, you must meet the following qualifications:
1) You must be entering your junior or senior year of high school in fall 2007.
2) You must have at least a 3.0 grade point average (out of 4.0).
3) You must have demonstrated an interest in journalism.
4) The combined income of your custodial parent(s)/guardians) plus child support payments, if any, must not exceed $45,000.
