Tim Nee Scholarship Fund

The Tim Nee Scholarship Fund, formerly known as the MTCNE Discretionary Scholarship Fund, supports increased access to the AMI diploma and certificate courses offered through MTCNE for individuals located in the northeastern United States, reflecting Tim’s dedication to excellence and access in Montessori education in the region. His unwavering support for quality Montessori training for aspiring educators has left an indelible mark on our community.

The Scholarship Application is open to all enrolled students with priority given to those U.S. citizens demonstrating financial need, commitment to the Montessori profession, as well as underrepresented students in Montessori teaching training programs.

A completed Scholarship Application consists of three components:

1. MTCNE Application
2. Scholarship Questionnaire
3. Financial Aid Profile (demonstration of financial need, e.g., FAFSA Student Aid Report)

Scholarship applicants must be accepted into an MTCNE Diploma Course or Certificate Course prior to the scholarship application due date(s).  All three components of the Scholarship Application must be received by the submission dues date(s).

The scholarship application due dates are as follows:

• Summer program start: April 3
• Fall program start: July 3
• Spring program start: December 3

The Scholarship Review Committee will meet one week after the due date for review.  Late submissions will not be considered.
