Scholarships
The IALC offers limited financial support through scholarships for students seeking to study in our programs. Currently, we offer the following scholarship.
Violet M. Yates Scholarship
The Violet Yates Scholarship fund was established by the Yates family in celebration of Mrs.Yates's 80th birthday and her lifelong concern for education of foreign-born women residing in the area. The scholarship is awarded to one student per year, and the recipient must use it for tuition during the IALC's eight week sessions. The scholarship is based on:
- the individual's goals for her life and career
- the role that English will play in reaching those goals
- financial need

The applicant must hold a degree from a secondary institution in which English is not the language of instruction.
