Scholarships & aid

Camp shouldn't be out of reach.

These Columbia camps offer scholarships, sliding-scale, or financial aid. Aid is usually limited and first-come — apply early, and don't be shy about asking.

How to apply

Four steps to aid

Find an aid camp

Every camp below carries the Scholarships badge. Open one to see its specifics.

Check the aid link

The detail page links straight to the provider's scholarship info or application where we have it.

Apply early

Aid budgets are small and fill fast — submit as soon as registration opens, not in May.

Just ask

Even without a formal program, many Columbia providers quietly help. A short email often works.
