Public Policy and International Affairs (PPIA) Junior Summer Institute

The PPIA Junior Summer Institute seeks to support students who hope to obtain a master’s or joint degree generally in public policy, public administration, international affairs or a related field. Participants attend a seven-week intensive summer institute at a partner university the summer before their senior year. The program seeks to equip fellows with the skills they need to succeed in graduate school and to aid in their development to serve the greater public good. Awardees receive full tuition to their JSI as well as travel expenses and a stipend. Participants are guaranteed to receive a minimum $5,000 scholarship to PPIA partner graduate programs if admitted and receive an application fee waiver. International students are eligible for select JSIs – Carnegie Mellon, Princeton, and University of Washington.
