As we learn and grow, the expectations, responsibilities and competition facing us tend to compound ... And when all of those challenges pile up, they can make us feel smaller in comparison. If that happens, let the wisdom that you are enough overtake your perceived shortcomings. Each time you feel self-criticism coming on, give yourself a compliment instead. Today, remind yourself that you stack up. Then, remind someone else that they stack up too.

Hello family, friends, and members of the community! The Department of American Indian Studies is happy to announce another year of our American Indian Summer Institute (AISI) that aims to get indigenous students acquainted with University of Minnesota's Twin Cities campus, facilities, students, faculty, and staff. We want to foster an early sense of ease and familiarity on college campuses that will make the transition into higher education that much easier for students. Students will stay in a residential hall on U of M campus and spend 6 days attending classes and workshops on college prep, admissions, financial aid, professional development, ACT prep, cultural knowledge, and various academic areas. The ultimate goal for this program is to help prepare our students for college, offer them a chance to meet other youth from around the state, and build their academic confidence. If you or someone you know has a student that fits the requirements, please forward the application as we would love to host them in our second year of the AISI program. All communications should be sent to aisi@umn.edu Where: University of Minnesota, Twin Cities Campus, East Bank - Minneapolis, MN When: Tentatively TBD: Sunday, July 28, 2019 - Saturday, August 03, 2019 &/or Sunday, August 04, 2019 - Saturday, August 10, 2019. Eligibility: AISI is open to all high school students who will enter grades 8-11 in the 2019-20 academic year. (Rising seniors application will be accepted on a case-by-case basis and are encouraged to apply) We will accept applications from all students who self-identify as part of an indigenous community in Minnesota. Price: AISI is a FREE program. Housing and meals are provided. Travel: Travel to the START of the program is provided. Pick-up sites are TBD based on applicant locations. Students will need to be picked up at the conclusion of the program. Application Timeline: The priority deadline is on April 1, 2019, although we will accept applications on a rolling basis until May 13, 2019 where we will then send out final notifications. Application Process: We encourage students from all academic backgrounds to apply, as we are looking at applications more holistically and taking other qualifications into consideration
