Financial Aid
We make every effort to keep program costs low, offering an
itinerary packed with
site visits and guest speakers for the price
of a regular summer course.
The following is a list of potential sources of funding for participants
requiring scholarships. Visit the Rothberg International School's
Financial Services page to learn about other opportunities. You may find the
Alternate Sources of Funding section
especially helpful.
1. Local scholarship opportunities
Many participants receive local funding to partially or fully cover program
costs, sometimes including airfare and personal expenses. Applicants
mostly find this financial aid on their own in their countries of origin,
through their academic institutions, local organizations, or scholarship
foundations.
Some of our alumni share their findings with us, which we are happy to
pass along. Register on our website, at no cost and with no obligation
to participate, so we can share this information with you:
We encourage you to look for these opportunities on your own as nobody knows better
than you which potential funding sources might suit your personal
background.
2. Ambassador Program: Earn scholarships while sparking innovation
Help us spark innovation and receive a stipend for introducing others to our program.
Receive US$200* for each participant you introduce who enrolls in both
InnovNation courses and US$100* for each participant you introduce who enrolls
in only one course. Alumni can earn scholarships retroactively and be reimbursed part of their participation fees.
Terms and conditions.
You can introduce participants in two ways:
-
Share invitation links and emails with your PRN:
Below you can get a special invitation email containing links with your personal referral number (PRN). Share it and we will consider anyone who accesses our website for the first time through a link with your PRN, and subsequently registers to our website, as having been introduced by you.
*Enter the email address that you used to register to our website. Haven't registered yet? Register Now.
-
Be our campus ambassador:
Promote InnovNation on your campus and we will consider each student from your
institution who participates as having been introduced by you. If you are interested,
please send us your CV and your institution's name, location, and website.
3. Need-Based Scholarships
A limited amount of need-based scholarships is available. Applicants
must be accepted to the program before they can be considered for a scholarship.
Once they have been accepted, applicants may request financial aid by sending the
following items to rissummer@savion.huji.ac.il and
registration@innovNation.net:
Funds are quite limited and can only go towards helping participants pay part of their tuition fees.
We recommend submitting requests for the lowest amount needed to enable participation.
Since we try to enable as many qualified participants to attend InnovNation as possible, priority will
be given to individuals with the lowest requests and those enrolled in both summer courses.
*Terms and conditions
You may receive a stipend for every introduced participant who:
- Participates in one of the sessions offered at the time he/she was introduced to the program.
- Completes the registration process and covers the total cost of the program on time.
- Has not contacted us previously.
- Does not claim that he/she was introduced by someone else. Campus ambassadors will receive half
of the stipend if the participant has been introduced by someone else.
- The trip for which he/she enrolled is not cancelled.
- Does not receive scholarships from our program or sponsor institutions.
Scholarships will be calculated once the deadline for paying the total cost of the program passes.
The scholarships will be granted to participants as discounts on the total cost of the program and to
non-participants as a stipend, sent via Pay Pal.
Participants entitled to discounts will have an extra week to pay their tuition. Non-participants must provide
us with a legal receipt for the total amount of the scholarship and a copy of an Official ID.
Stipends for non-participants will not be commissioned until the program's completion and all applicable
tax and transfer costs will be deducted from the stipend.
