LEAD and the Native American Finance Officers Association (NAFOA) Summer
Business Institute

For more than 28 years, the LEAD Program has provided business education
to more than 7,500 minority high school students. In summer 2009, LEAD
and the Native American Finance Officers Association (NAFOA) are
partnering to provide a unique program for Native American and Alaska
Native students.

Native American and Alaska Native high school juniors will participate
in a four week program to learn about business and finance as it is
relevant to Native communities. Tribal leaders and Native people working
in business and finance will introduce students to exciting career
opportunities. Students will live on a university campus, participate in
interactive classes and corporate site visits conducted by business
school professors and corporate executives.

Students will also take classes in marketing, accounting, finance,
economics and ethics. The curriculum also includes a day focused on
college admissions. Students will participate in business and stock
market competitions. On weekends, students will engage in a variety of
extracurricular activities from theme park trips to sporting events. 

Participating Universities:

Cornell University
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
Dartmouth College
University of Michigan
Duke University
University of Pennsylvania
Northwestern University
University of Virginia
Stanford University

Original Application Deadline: February 5, 2009

The application deadline for Native students has been extended to: March
15, 2009

It is to your benefit to submit your application as soon as possible
before the deadline, as you will have a higher likelihood of being
accepted into the program. Please do not let cost deter you from
applying. Additional funding is available for Native students.
