MovingWorlds Institute Scholarship Application Requirements

We believe that Experteering—and the act of learning through it—should be accessible to all. We strive to make our Experteering programs more accessible, with the belief that the added diversity brings forth new ideas, insights, and connections that can help our entire network.

Please note that in order for your application to be considered, BOTH the scholarship application AND your MovingWorlds Institute Fellowship application must be completed and submitted by midnight of the program application deadline. 

We have a limited scholarship pool and allocate amounts in such a way that maximizes the diversity of the cohort and enables those with the greatest need to get assistance. Scholarships are given out on a weekly/rolling basis, combining a first-come, first-served basis, as well as a needs analysis.

If you are applying for a scholarship, please keep in mind that you will be asked to provide a letter of reference and upload a video introducing yourself (more info on that below).

More questions? Email cole@movingworlds.org or anna@movingworlds.org, and we can schedule time to speak.
