PROGRAM GUIDELINES:

Minnesota Business Venture will host 200 students each week of the program. Because of the group size, and to provide a safe and fun learning experience, BestPrep has the following expectations of you. Please read them carefully so you know what to expect while attending MBV.

Participants are required to attend all scheduled programs and activities and cannot leave campus at any time.
Participants cannot have guests on campus.
Residence halls are not coed and will be supervised accordingly.
Absolutely no drugs, alcohol or weapons of any kind are permitted.
Tobacco use under the age of 18 is illegal and not allowed.
Cell phones and personal electronics are for free time use only.
If you drive your car, you must park in the designated lot and leave your keys with the MBV staff for the week.
All participants will be expected to conduct themselves in a manner appropriate to MBV standards, cooperate with the staff and comply with campus rules.

I understand that MBV is an intensive, academic program and the rules are designed for my safety and enjoyment. I also understand that my payment is non-refundable once I am accepted. If all forms following my application are not submitted to BestPrep by the due date, BestPrep retains the right to keep the non-refundable payment and cancel my application.

I agree to the above guidelines.

PAYMENT INFORMATION:

The early bird cost to attend is $150. This payment is non-refundable if you cancel or fail to turn in all your paperwork by the due date. Our goal is to ensure that every student is given the opportunity to attend MBV. Financial aid is available for those families who qualify for free/reduced lunch.

After April 24, the cost to attend will rise to $200.

FINANCIAL AID: Do you qualify for free/reduced lunch?

NoYes

Financial assistance is limited. To receive assistance, you must provide two forms: a current transcript with the State MARSS identification number on it, and proof of free/reduced lunch status. To qualify, students must be in grades 9-12 and have a C average or above. All participants are asked to pay a portion of the registration fee. Please select the amount you have the capacity to pay to attend MBV this summer. Send a copy of your transcript AND free/reduced lunch status to BestPrep via email (mbv@bestprep.org), fax (763-398-0391), or mail ASAP.
