Full-time students and recent graduates (those who graduated from a full-time program in 2002 or later) may attend the Seminar at the reduced fee of $275.

Some scholarships are available, however, to help full-time students who could not otherwise attend. Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of merit and need.
