    Apply

    Please check back for the start date of INSTEP 2009.

    To apply for admission, please visit www.tc.edu/apply for application guidelines and our web-based application. We accept applications on a rolling, space-available basis. While there is no formal deadline for INSTEP, we are accepting applications now for Summer 2009. We highly recommend submitting your application before June 1st, 2009 in order to be reviewed in time for classes.

    Financial Aid

    Tuition scholarships are available on the basis of academic merit and financial need. Scholarships are awarded on a funds-available basis. 
     
    If you are interested in applying for Federal Student Aid, you will need to file the 2008-2009 FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Be sure to include the Teachers College school coded G03979.  After we receive your FAFSA information from the Department of Education, within 14 days you will receive a financial aid award letter.  We strongly recommend completing as early as possibly if you are planning to attend Teachers College this summer. 

    Housing

    If you are interested in applying for housing, we recommend contacting the Office of Residential Services for more information.
     
    Please note:

    Limited housing for INSTEP students is available. Housing for INSTEP students is known as Summer Conference Housing and has a separate application process than school-year housing. If you are interested in applying for housing, please complete the Summer Conference Housing Application, and indicate that you are planning to enroll in an INSTEP program. Do not use the regular Housing Application for school-year programs.

    The Office of Residential Services offers a limited number of spaces within the residence halls to accommodate persons attending summer conferences, classes, workshops, or interning. Conference guests and workshop attendees will be housed in our 517 West 121st residence hall. To view our latest version of our brochure detailing this service please click here.
