<p>Adding “Air Denison”: </p>

<p>This looks like it’s by INVITATION ONLY, yesterday D2 got a hard copy via snail mail and I don’t see anything on their website. This might have been generated by a list from Ventures Scholars, NHRP or NMS semi, etc. It never hurts to ask, if you’re interested in Denison, give them a call and see if they will send you an inivitation.</p>

<p>Sept 22 hrough Dec 8, visit campus for a 1-night stay and they pay airfare (up to $500, excluding baggage fees); ground transportation to and from airport, student-host and all meals provided. Attend classes, experience campus life, meet students & faculty. You can either do an individual overnight (Sun-Thurs) or attend one of their Fall Visitation programs.</p>

<p>Note: Denison offers many merit scholarships, several of which are for diversity, and they are for substantial amounts:</p>

<p>Bumping this up and adding Yale. While they don’t have a diversity weekend for prospective students, they did offer to pay travel expenses for D2 to visit when she was accepted last year. I don’t know if this offer went to all admitted URMs or not.</p>

<p>NHCTmom, I would recommend looking at the websites or calling schools on the list to find out their current policies. Keilexandra did extensive research to develop this list, I don’t know anywhere else that has such a complete resource. Here’s one other source:</p>
