Το Κέντρο για Χαρισματικά – Ταλαντούχα Παιδιά/ CTY Greece πραγματοποιείται σε συνεργασία με το Πανεπιστήμιο Johns Hopkins και την αποκλειστική δωρεά του Ιδρύματος Σταύρος Νιάρχος, και τελεί υπό την αιγίδα του Υπουργείου Παιδείας και Θρησκευμάτων.

To Κέντρο έχει εξασφαλίσει από τους υποστηρικτές του συγκεκριμένους χρηματικούς πόρους που αντιστοιχούν σε σημαντικό αριθμό υποτροφιών. Οι υποτροφίες προορίζονται για τους μαθητές και τις μαθήτριες που έχουν επιλεγεί  για τα Θερινά Προγράμματά του Κέντρου. Τα διαδικτυακά προγράμματα και τα προγράμματα Σαββατοκύριακου δεν προβλέπουν προς το παρόν τη χορήγηση υποτροφιών.
Οι υποτροφίες χορηγούνται στους μαθητές που έχουν την υψηλότερη βαθμολογία, εφόσον πληρούν και τα εισοδηματικά κριτήρια. Ο αριθμός των υποτροφιών ορίζεται από το ύψος των χορηγιών και δεν είναι κάθε χρόνο ο ίδιος. Το ποσό αυτό φέτος κατανέμεται ως εξής:

  • για οικογενειακό εισόδημα μικρότερο ή ίσο των 30.000 ευρώ ο υποψήφιος δικαιούται πλήρη υποτροφία (100%)
  • για οικογενειακό εισόδημα μικρότερο ή ίσο των 50.000 ευρώ και μεγαλύτερο των 30.000 ευρώ ο υποψήφιος δικαιούται μερική υποτροφία (50%).

Σε περίπτωση που κάνει αίτηση για οικονομική βοήθεια μαθητής που συμμετείχε με πλήρη υποτροφία σε πρόγραμμα του CTY Greece σε προηγούμενη σχολική χρονιά, δικαιούται μόνο μερική χρηματοδότηση (50%).

Συνολικά, ένας μαθητής που αιτείται οικονομικής βοήθειας σε περισσότερα από ένα έτη, μπορεί να λάβει έως 1 ½ υποτροφία.

Σε περίπτωση που μια οικογένεια έχει περισσότερα παιδιά υποψήφια για χρηματοδότηση στο ίδιο έτος, διευκρινίζεται ότι δεν μπορεί να δοθεί συνολικά πάνω από 1 ½ υποτροφία στην ίδια οικογένεια.

Tο Κέντρο για Χαρισματικά – Ταλαντούχα Παιδιά του Κολλεγίου Ανατόλια/ CTY Greece έχει χορηγούς τις εταιρίες Lidl Hellas και AEGEAN Airlines και υποστηρικτές το Κοινωφελές Ίδρυμα Ιωάννη Σ. Λάτση και το Ίδρυμα Hellenic Hope.
