 INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL AID

Although the official deadline for applications for financial aid for the
Summer Institute in Cognitive Science has now passed, we will continue to
process further such applications. However, applications received before
the deadline will be given priority.

Financial aid forms should be filled out as completely as possible. If
there are sections of the form that do not apply to you (for example, be-
cause you have no GRE scores), please leave these sections blank and ex-
plain why you are doing so in an accompanying note, enclosing all docu-
mentation that you think relevant.

It is anticipated that the Organizing Committee will, unfortunately, have
very limited resources of its own to aid deserving candidates to attend
the Institute. And decisions about awards from this source cannot be made
before April. However, we will do all we can to help applicants receive
support from third-party sources (and we have already had some success in
this respect, specifically for US minorities, and for persons applying
from outside the US).

People who believe they may be eligible for assistance from third-party
sources or who would like any clarification or advice on financial aid
should contact Barry Smith as soon as possible:
