Financial Aid

Delegates can apply for financial aid to cover the delegation fee. Delegates should fill out the financial aid application and select what types of aid they would like to apply for. Delegates should use the further information section to explain their desire to attend Yale Model Congress. Forms must be submitted by October 11 at 11:59 pm ET for Round I applications and November 1 at 11:59 pm ET for Round II applications. If you do not receive confirmation that we have received your application, you will not be considered for financial aid. Delegates who apply for financial aid receive an additional two weeks to pay their delegate fee.

Financial Aid Decision Process

Yale Model Congress will decide financial aid awards by October 14 at 11:59 pm ET for Round I applications and November 4 at 11:59 pm ET for Round II applications at the latest and notify applicants and their advisors of our decision by email. Decisions are based on demonstrated need, desire to attend the conference, and prospective benefits of attendance. Depending on the delegate’s application, we may award partial or full delegate fee waivers.
