Scholarship
The STEAM Academy at Indiana Tech provides scholarships to reduce camp and program fees for families and individuals that request assistance and qualify. We are thankful for the support from Lily Endowment Inc. and General Motors, which allows us to cover the costs of the program fees by up to 50%. Approved scholarship recipients will be required to pay the remaining balance.
Please apply for your scholarship early—Because scholarship funding is limited, we ask that applicants complete the process as soon as possible. Approval can take up to three (3) weeks from the application’s completion date. Recipients will be notified as soon as they are approved, but please note that scholarships may NOT be applied retroactively to camps for which the child has registered and attended.
If you have questions regarding our scholarship program or an extreme financial need that warrants further consideration, please email Caleb Hunter at steam@indianatech.edu.
