2012 Paid Summer Internships - Application & Job Descriptions Now Available

Each year, the American Savings Foundation offers a small number of paid summer internships at area nonprofit organizations. These positions are available only to current American Savings Foundation Scholars who will have completed their sophomore year of college by the upcoming summer. For the list of 2012 summer internship positions and the application form, click here.

Graduate School Scholarships

The American Savings Foundation awards a small number of graduate school scholarships only to students who have received the American Savings Foundation scholarship in the past. Priority is given to students pursuing a master's degree in education or social service, and who are attending graduate school within the state of Connecticut. Most graduate scholarships are awarded for one year only. Graduate school applicants should use the renewal application.

Spring Semester Payments

If your award is scheduled to be paid in two installments, it is your responsibility to supply proof of your continued matriculation at your college or university. You must mail us: 1) Your fall 2011 grade report and 2) enrollment verification (spring semester bill or course schedule) for spring 2012.    

Printouts from your school website will be accepted.

If we do not receive confirmation of your continued enrollment by March 1, 2012, the second installment of your scholarship may be withdrawn. If you have changed schools in the second semester resulting in a substantial change in financial need, the amount of the second installment may be adjusted accordingly. If you have any questions about your scholarship award, or if there have been any changes in your enrollment status, please call Heather Pereira at (860) 827-2556.
