Application for Free Summer Institutes for
Social Studies Teachers

These institutes are offered at no charge, and each teacher will receive a $500 stipend for participating. All meals and housing in apartments at Ashland University will be provided.

Each institute will be a rigorous, six-day, graduate-level program beginning at 9:00 am each morning and concluding at 8:30 pm each evening, with an extended afternoon break. Participants in the summer institutes will be participating as audit students in courses that are a part of Ashland University's Master of American History and Government degree program. The courses will be held on the campus of Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio.

Books and other readings will be mailed four-to-six weeks before the institute. Teachers are expected to prepare for and fully take part in the discussions during the week.

Thirty teachers will be selected to attend each institute. The institutes will be held on the campus of Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio.

Graduate Credit: Teachers may choose to receive two hours of Master's degree credit from Ashland University. This credit can be used toward the new Master of American History and Government offered by Ashland University or may be transfered to another institution. The two credits will cost $468.

To Apply: Fill out the application below. You must complete the entire application to be considered. Applications are due by March 1, 2009. Selection will be made by March 15, 2009. Because space will be limited, you are encouraged to apply early. Each accepted applicant will be asked to submit a $100 check deposit after being accepted in March to reserve a place in the institute. This check will only be cashed if you cancel after May 31, 2009. When you arrive at the institute, your uncashed check will be returned to you.
