EXITO SumMer Research Academy


Thank you for a wonderful 2020 Summer Research Academy! This website provides the synchronous and asynchronous content from the 5 day SRA and much more in terms of resources and answers to questions.

Archived pages of each day can be found under the Archived Pages tab in the menu bar above.

Stipend update

As of Thursday 7/23 PST

Stipends are in the process of being disbursed for Scholars who

  1. Completed the elevator pitch (in session on Day 5 or as make up work - more info below)

  2. Completed 3 out of 5 daily reflections (Days # 1-5),

  3. Submitted the W-9 and Stipend form.

There was a bit of a delay in processing but PSU is currently processing the stipends as listed above. The disbursement process usually takes us 1-2 days and then however long the bank or post office takes for processing.

  • If you did not present your elevator pitch in the synchronous session on Day #5 you will need to send EXITO a written pitch or recorded pitch. Please see the "IMPT, EXITO: Outstanding SRA Content (Elevator Pitch Presentation) & Delay to Funding" email for more information. Email exito@pdx.edu if you did not get it.

  • If you are missing any daily reflections you should have received an email on 7/14 PDT with the subject line "ACTION REQUIRED: EXITO SRA, Missing Daily Reflection." You should have an email for each daily reflection you are missing.

  • If you are missing a stipend form or W-9 EXITO will email you soon.
