Applications for the Governor's Institutes of Vermont are currently closed.

Applications for the 2022 Summer Institutes are now closed.

Please check back soon to learn about the exciting programs GIV will be offering next year!

GIV applications are easy and you’ll just need to fill out a couple simple online forms, which include:

• Basic student information (name, age, email address, school, etc)
• Choosing which topics/strands interest you and a few short essays that express your interest.
• Recommendations from teachers/adults – these aren’t formal letters but rather a quick online form that you send directly to their email.

Some of our shorter programs (like Winter Weekend) are similar but won’t necessarily require recommendations.

Check out our student resources page for more info.
