Deadline: 15 January 2024
The Khyentse Foundation is accepting applications from students, practitioners, and scholars from all traditions, schools, and sects of Buddhism for Buddhist Studies Scholarships to support individuals who wish to study the dharma.
Buddhist Studies Scholarships are open to the public and aim to support students who are enrolled or plan to enroll in a Buddhist Studies program. Khyentse Foundation scholarships are awarded for one-year terms. Scholarship recipients may apply each year for continuing support for longer-term studies.
These scholarships fund tuition or other expenses related to one’s studies. Applicants for this scholarship are usually working toward a BA, MA, or MPhil degree, or are in a certificate program.
Award Information
- Scholarship award amounts depend on the scope of the proposal. Full funding of proposals is not always possible and partial funding may be offered to some applicants. KF is able to offer scholarships because of the generosity of the donors. Please keep this in mind and request only what you need for your dharma activity.
Qualifications
- KF accepts applications from students or practitioners from all Buddhist traditions.
- Your application will not be considered if:
- Your application is not related to Buddhism or Buddhist activity.
- You have already applied for a scholarship or grant in this round.
- You are applying for PhD support. PhD candidates should complete the PhD Scholarship application.
- You are applying for studies at Rangjung Yeshe Institute (RYI) in Nepal. Applicants must apply directly to RYI. KF gives RYI an annual grant to be used for financial aid for ordained sangha, lay students, and work-study participants.
