Since 1946 the Foundation for Economic Education has never wavered from its vital mission: to foster liberty and prosperity for everyone by changing the climate of ideas—one mind at a time. The Foundation carries out this mission by continually deepening the understanding of a free society and by passing this knowledge on to individuals everywhere.
This year marks the 46th consecutive year of summer seminars at FEE. We invite you to be a part of FEE’s mission and to aid in the cause of individual liberty around the world.
Information and Details
FEE—Something for Everyone
Anyone over the age of 18 may apply for a FEE summer seminar—whether a full-time or part-time student, a parent, a teacher, or a professional. High school graduates under the age of majority may attend with a parental chaperone.
Location and Facilities
The Foundation for Economic Education is located in Irvington-on-Hudson, New York, approximately 22 miles north of Manhattan, on a five-acre, 19th-century estate.
The 20,000 square-foot Main Building, a gracious Hudson River-style mansion, contains offices, a library and archive, a classroom, a commercial kitchen, a dining room, and a large reception/sitting lounge.
The library will serve as the lecture hall for summer seminars, with several other spaces utilized as sites for discussion groups.
Meals are catered and served buffet-style in the dining room.
Wireless Internet access is available throughout the building.
Free time is allocated each day for games, sports, discussion, reading, or some quiet time.
Housing
Seminar participants will be housed in the newly renovated Doubletree Hotel in Tarrytown, approximately two miles from FEE. Amenities include high-speed internet, fitness room, and an indoor pool.
A complimentary shuttle service will transport participants between FEE and the hotel.
Costs and Scholarships
Tuition for those attending the FEE summer seminars is paid for by generous donations from individuals and foundations.
Scholarships are available to qualified student applicants to cover the $450 charge for room and board.
