Awakening Together offers scholarships for Awakening Together members who would like to join for an Awakening Together event but need financial assistance to do so. We offer three types of scholarships:
- Lodging Scholarships
- Retreat Only or All Inclusive Retreat Scholarships
- Event Scholarships
You can learn about and apply for these types of scholarships on this page. Those who have not received a scholarship in the past two years are considered first.
Lodging Scholarships
Lodging scholarships are available for a shared room or for a room in the Dorm at the reduced rate of $42.50 per day plus tax. Scholarships are not available for private single rooms. Lodging scholarships include breakfast each day and dinner on Saturday through Wednesday evenings. You may apply for a lodging scholarship in conjunction with a retreat scholarship or you may apply for a lodging scholarship only. It may take up to two weeks to review and approve a scholarship application, so we recommend applying as early as possible.
Stipulations:
- If you are approved for a lodging scholarship, you must make your reservation and pay $42.50 + tax as a deposit within two weeks of receiving approval or you forfeit the scholarship.
- Scholarship deposits are non-refundable.
- The balance due must be paid by the start of your stay.
Retreat Only and All Inclusive Retreat Scholarships
Retreat scholarships are available for retreats offered at the Retreat House by Awakening Together. They are not available for retreats offered by other groups. A retreat scholarship allows you to pay a reduced rate per day for the retreat.
- On-line or In-person retreat scholarship is 25% of the retreat fee. For example, if the retreat fee only is $400 then the scholarship rate is $100.
- All Inclusive retreat scholarship is 50% retreat fee. For example, if the All Inclusive retreat fee is $1,995 then the scholarship rate is $997.50.
It may take up to two weeks to review and approve a scholarship application, so we recommend applying as early as possible.
