The summer programs bring together students and professors to explore the enduring ideas of Western civilization through the disciplines of political philosophy, philosophical anthropology, ethics, literature and Law.

Financial Aid

Please follow the instructions below carefully regarding financial aid requests:

The Phoenix Institute annually provides a limited amount of scholarships to carefully selected students.

Scholarships are only available for Summer Seminars.

The following requirements need to be met to be eligible to apply for a scholarship:

• The applicant has been accepted to the Summer Program by the corresponding Assessment Committee;
• The applicant is either an enrolled full-time graduate or undergraduate student, or a person regularly working with students;
  
• The applicant has submitted a detailed explanation of his/her financial need (preferably providing sufficient written proof of the inability to pay the full tuition fee);
  
• The applicant is able to pay at least 40% of the tuition fee with personal funds (100% scholarships are not granted);
  
• The applicant must submit a detailed personal report before the end of the Summer Seminar attended with the scholarship.

Students applying for a scholarship should realize that the Phoenix Institute is fully dependant on its benefactors and therefore cannot guarantee that a scholarship will be granted.

Though they will not be taken into consideration until a student has been accepted to a summer program, scholarship applications can be sent along with the student’s Curriculum Vitae and Motivation Essay.
