SCHOLARSHIPS & WORKSTUDY

SCHOLARSHIP FUND
 

The giving and allocating of money for scholarships and work/study positions is a worldwork project that is continually evolving as we all learn and grow in relationship to economics, education, and social justice. The scholarship policy is fluid and develops based on feedback from previous participants. Thanks to everyone who has helped to create it.
 
In order to make the seminar accessible to as many people as possible from all over the world, between one third to one half of the participants receive some kind of financial assistance. The seminar itself offers help in the form of tuition scholarships and work/study exchanges. 

Additionally, our scholarship fund is maintained by the generosity of participants and other friends of worldwork. This money is allocated for those needing help with lodging and expenses. We are thankful to those who have been able to contribute to the scholarship fund and we welcome all donations.  Donations are tax deductible.

Checks can be made out to Scholarship Fund and sent to: Worldwork Seminars, Box 4, 2049 NW Hoyt, Portland, OR 97209, USA.

 

SCHOLARSHIP & WORK/STUDY POLICY
 
SCHOLARSHIPS

Individuals who come from countries where the local monetary equivalence is not comparable to Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, Western Europe, or Japan are encouraged to apply for scholarships. In addition, individuals coming from countries such as the U.S., Western Europe, or Australia who are part of groups that have been economically disenfranchised are encouraged to apply for tuition scholarships.

Please send a brief statement of your need and a justification for your request. Scholarships will be awarded as long as funds remain.

WORK/STUDY
A limited number of world/study positions will be available for individuals who need financial assistance and who come from countries where there is a relatively fair equivalence to the U.S. dollar. For a tuition reduction we ask that work/study participants be willing to help the seminar in a variety of tasks including video-taping, cleaning and arranging the room, registration, office jobs, and helping those with special needs.  We will ask participants to help out before, during, or after the seminar and tuition reductions will coincide with the work load.
 
Please send a brief description stating your need, a justification for your request, and also include any special skills such as video work, sound, computer, grant-writing, or secretarial.

The deadline to apply for a work/study position is November 1, 2005.
