32nd Annual Boulder Jazz Dance Workshop

2010 Work Study /Internship Information

We have received a record number of scholarship applications this year and at this time we have awarded all scholarships for summer 2010.

PLEASE REMEMBER AND REFER TO THIS INFORMATION!
If you receive a scholarship or internship, please talk to us before you make your plane reservation!!!

Scholarship recipients and interns receive a 50% to 100% discount on all BJDW classes except:
• Performance Track classes
• Yoga
• Teacher's Seminar
• Auditioning 101
• Movement Invention/Cool Down
• Weekend Workshop Classes
You can take the above classes but you will pay full tuition for them.

TUITION
Scholarship recipients must pay for any tuition not covered by the scholarship (i.e., for any of the excluded classes listed above and/or half of tuition for other classes if awarded a 50% scholarship). Within two weeks of scholarship being awarded, we must receive a completed registration form with a $100 tuition deposit + $20 registration fee ($120 total) from the recipient. If any tuition is due, this must be received by May 1st, or if scholarship is awarded after May 1st, within two weeks of scholarship being awarded. At the end of the workshop, after completion of all agreed-upon work assignments, the $100 deposit will be refunded.

HOUSING
Scholarship students must have a confirmed housing arrangement in Boulder. If staying in BJDW-arranged housing (Athens North apartments), scholarship recipients must pay the $150 housing deposit within two weeks of scholarship being awarded. Balance of rent must be received in full by May 1st, or if scholarship is awarded after May 1st, within two weeks of scholarship being awarded.

WORK STUDY DUTIES
This is a work-study situation. Your assigned tasks will be scheduled around your classes. You are expected to participate as a helper at various times throughout the workshop. If receiving a 100% discount we’ll ask more of you than students receiving less. The tasks we ask of work-study scholarship students and interns may include any of the following: Answering phones and interfacing with students in the office; acting as an administrative assistant in the office; roll-taking in classes; serving on tech/house crew for performances; performing “gofer” type tasks; assisting with various physical tasks such as taping the marley floor for performances; participating in theatre set up and/or strike; and packing and moving boxes.

Interns will be more involved in administrative aspects of the workshop and are expected to put in more office hours than other work-study scholarship students. Interns should not take a full load of classes to leave room in their schedules to work in the office. Otherwise, the internship and work study scholarships function in the same way. Internships are always 100% scholarships (see above).

All scholarship students and interns must arrive in Boulder no later than Friday, July 17th.

Please complete the form, submit it and we will get back to you soon.
