Hollyhock programs are enriched by welcoming a multitude of voices and experiences that reflect global plurality. The Hollyhock scholarship program is one of the key strategies we employ to expand program access to underrepresented and marginalized communities.
A limited number of scholarships are granted per program with awards ranging from partial to full tuition. As we aim to support the highest number of people possible; the majority of scholarships awarded are for 50% of tuition costs. The vast majority do not cover travel, accommodation, or meals.
While everyone is welcome, we especially encourage applicants from people whose identities intersect with, but are not limited to: Black, Indigenous, racialized, 2SLGBTQIA+, people with physical and cognitive disabilities, neurodiverse people, newcomers (first time at Hollyhock), youth, and elders.
All programs are eligible except for holidays and meditation programs that are based on dana (teachings by donation). While we continue to grow our scholarship fund and build accessibility, we regret that not all applications will be successful.
