The recent economic downturn has necessitated cutbacks in a wide variety of state programs. The Governor's state budget for fiscal year 2009 - 2010 does not contain funds for the operation of the Governor's Schools during the summer of 2009. The following Governor's Schools have been cancelled: </p>
<p>The Pennsylvania Governor's School for the Arts at Mercyhurst College.
The Pennsylvania Governor's School for the Agricultural Sciences at Penn State.
The Pennsylvania Governor's School for International Studies at the University of Pittsburgh.
The Pennsylvania Governor's School for the Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University.
The Pennsylvania Governor's School for Teaching at Millersville University.
The following schools will move forward under different names and will be supported by a combination of private funding sources and tuition charges to participants. They are no longer called Governor's Schools. Each has indicated that an attempt will be made to assist students with financial need. For information contact:</p>
