SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Anderson Ranch is dedicated to offering opportunities to promising
artists and increasing access to our programs for a diverse group of
participants. Applications for scholarship support are encouraged.
Specific scholarships are funded by Ranch supporters, both individuals
and foundations, either through endowed funds or special gifts. We
are grateful for these important gifts. A complete list of supporters is
available in our Annual Report.
Applicants are encouraged to address the following points, since
scholarship applications are reviewed based on:
• Artistic merit
• Potential for artistic development through our programs
• Diversity including age, geographic location, ethnic background
• Financial need
Most scholarship awards cover part or all of the tuition; the registration
fee, studio fee, housing, meals, travel and supplies are the responsibility
of the participant.
There is targeted funding for graduating high school seniors, currentlyenrolled undergraduate and graduate students. You must check the
appropriate box on the online application form in order to be considered.
SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Applications for adult scholarships must be submitted via our online
application at https://andersonranch.slideroom.com by February 28,
2014. When applying, please indicate three workshop choices, as well
as any housing preferences. There is a ten dollar fee to apply, and if you
are awarded a scholarship, you will be required to submit a $300 deposit
to accept your award. Applications are reviewed by a team of Anderson
Ranch artistic staff to ascertain if the applicant is qualified. If you wish
to take a particular workshop whether or not you receive a scholarship,
we encourage you to register for the workshop in addition to submitting
a scholarship application. If awarded a scholarship, your account will be
credited for the amount of the scholarship. However, you will be required
to pay your workshop and housing deposits at the time of registration,
and you will be assessed cancellation fees if you cancel.
For Children and Teen workshops, please use the application form on
