How to Apply to SNP-BRIDGE
Dates and Pricing
From June 15th to 26th, 2026, college-bound and early college students will be invited to participate in SNP-BRIDGE, a two-week hybrid immersive experience, with the choice to participate remotely or in-person at Stanford. We expect the program will have about 50 students.
The cost will be:
- $2320 for remote participation
- $2930 for in-person participation (food included, housing NOT included)
The in-person program will be held at the Stanford Research Park of the Stanford University School of Medicine.
We plan to offer scholarships to approximately 10-20% of attendees. Students accepted to the program will have an opportunity to apply for scholarship.
Group Projects: Students conduct group projects of their choice using the design thinking approach. Students learn from professors, researchers, clinicians, and neurodivergent student advocates. Through the design thinking process, students then collaborate on neurodiversity advocacy projects that we hope will continue beyond the program.
How to Apply
The application process is simple. Just click on the “apply now” button and complete the questions. The application asks for demographic information along with a few questions about your interest in the program and neurodiversity. You will also have the opportunity to indicate whether you'd like to be considered for a needs based scholarship.
We encourage students to apply who have personal experience and/or knowledge about neurodiversity, as well as those who have little or no experience and want to learn more. We suggest that you compose your answers to the following questions in a Word document that you can copy and paste into the application.
- How can the objectives of this summer program (listed here) help you maximize your potential in your next year of college?
- Tell us about your interests and strengths. How can your interests and strengths be utilized and built upon in college?
Once you have completed the questions, hit submit. You can see the application timeline, below.
