Our 2010-11 schedule will be similar; if conflicts may be an issue for you, please check back in early summer 2010, when we should have a complete schedule available.

Tuition

Tuition is $550, covering all costs including meals. Applications received before July 15 will receive a discount of $50. Scholarships may be available.

Scholarships

A limited number of partial scholarships may be available. There are two current categories of scholarships:

  • Leadership Corvallis Public Service Scholarship. These scholarships, of $250 each, are based on need and commitment to the community.
  • Scott Zimbrick Small Business Scholarship. Scott Zimbrick graduated from Leadership Corvallis in 1993. He was Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Citizens Bank, a City Councilor from Ward 7 and the 2005 Hans Neukomm Leadership Award winner. Scott was a businessman who actively volunteered in Corvallis and felt everyone should give back to the community. Tragically, Scott passed away in 2007. This $250 scholarship will be given in his name to a small business person or independent consultant who will be encouraged to carry on his legacy of community service.

To apply for a scholarship you must complete a scholarship application form and include it with your class application and letters of reference. You will be notified after August 3, 2009 of the status of your scholarship application. Scholarship recipients will be invoiced for the balance of the tuition (either $250 if application packet is received before July 15th or $300 if between July 15th and July 31).
