Owen Weber-Weinstein Scholarship
Awarded to two incoming or returning students in Wilderness Therapy or Religious Studies. Although preference is given to students in the above two programs, other students who have completed an independent study or religious pilgrimage that will enhance their field of study, or are planning to do so, may also apply. The amount of the award is $1,700 per student and is not renewable, although students may reapply for subsequent years. A student submits a letter of recommendation and an essay (one to two pages) describing the student’s dedication to the course of study and vision for the future use of the Naropa degree. Applications should be submitted to the director of financial aid and decisions will be made by the director of financial aid in conjunction with the academic departments involved. Returning students applying for the scholarship must have at least a cumulative GPA of 3.5. Incoming student’s admission application and departmental recommendations will be considered in lieu of a GPA.
