Financial Assistance

The College Board Fellows Program awards scholarships to secondary school teachers planning to teach courses in schools that serve economically disadvantaged students and/or traditionally underrepresented minority students. 2008 College Board Fellows will be offered a scholarship of $1,000 for qualified teachers to attend a College Board-endorsed AP* Summer Institute. The scholarships cannot be used for classroom materials. These Institutes provide an excellent opportunity for teachers:

  • to gain command of a specific subject, and
  • to receive up-to-date information on the latest curriculum changes.

Scholarship applications are available through the Western Regional Office at (408) 367-1515, or the following College Board website. Deadline for College Board financial aid applications is March 1, 2007. For questions, please send an e-mail to apequity@collegeboard.org
