Deadline: 15 January 2025
The Khyentse Foundation (KF) is currently accepting applications for its Buddhist Studies Scholarships Program, from students, practitioners, and scholars from all traditions, schools, and sects of Buddhism.
Khyentse Foundation Buddhist Studies Scholarships support individuals who wish to study the dharma. 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.
Funding Information
- Buddhist Studies Scholarship awards are usually in the $500 to $5,000 USD range.
Eligibility Criteria
- Your application will not be considered if:
- Your application is written by AI. They want to know about you and your aspirations, practice and studies. Please do not use OpenAI, ChatGPT or any AI program to write your application. If they suspect your essays are written by AI, your application will be rejected. A sincere application means more than a well-written one.
- 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.
