Thanks to generous donors, YYGS is able to offer various Scholarships, which are Need-Based Financial Aid packages that cover full-tuition ($6,250 USD) and may also cover travel costs.

In order to be considered for one of these scholarships (below), you MUST complete the entire online YYGS Application, including the Need-Based Financial Aid portion, by February 6, 2019. YYGS staff will then automatically review whether or not you meet any of our 2019 scholarships’ eligibility requirements and contact you when decisions are released in late March or early April.

• Step 1: Review the YYGS eligibility criteria.
• Step 2: Review the YYGS application required components.
• Step 3: Review a PDF of a sample blank application, and start preparing to answer as many application questions as possible.
• Step 4: You will need to submit contact information for a parent/guardian, teacher, and/or official at your school. Reach out to them as soon as possible to review the PDF of a sample blank application with you, and be sure to collect the information you need.
• Step 5: Click APPLY NOW and start your 2019 application. Be sure to write down the email and password you use in case you need to login again to continue the application.
• Step 6: Contact YYGS Staff with ANY/ALL questions as you complete the application. The earlier you contact us, the more likely that we can help you by the deadline.

• Step 9: Pay the $60 USD application fee. If you submitted a Fee Waiver Request*, this page will automatically skip.
  *YYGS staff will contact you if your Fee Waiver Request is denied to let you know that your application will not be reviewed until the $60 YYGS application fee is paid.
• Step 10: Keep an eye out for an email from YYGS that confirms receipt of your completed application. Please note that confirmation emails usually arrive within 24-48 hours of submission, as there are sometimes delays in payment processing. Questions? Please contact us.
