Scholarships The Center for the Divine Feminine (CDF) at ITP is celebrating the third year of our Tuition Scholarship Program. This year’s program builds on the previous two years which has provided awards to 24 students from ITP and other related graduate programs. The focus of this program is to fund research to further the education and awareness of the Divine Feminine, the Divine Masculine, transpersonal psychology, and Feminist studies. We want to thank all of the people who have contributed to the success of this program through financial donations and those working on research and projects focused on the many aspects of the Divine Feminine. As you can imagine, the need is great and there is more work to do. The Center for the Divine Feminine Scholarship Program is offering tuition scholarships in the range of $2000-5000 to residential and global Master’s level and Ph.D. students at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Scholarships are awarded based on a study’s emphasis on its connection to the Divine Feminine, the Divine Masculine, and/or a balance between the two; the project’s contribution to the field of transpersonal psychology and the Divine Feminine; or Feminist studies that includes some element of the sacred in them. As part of community outreach, one or more scholarships will also be offered to other institutions, particularly those with a transpersonal, spiritual, and /or Divine Feminine focus. Applicants must provide written permission to post a summary abstract of their completed work on the CDF website and may be invited to present at various CDF events. They will be asked for an interim follow-up report that can be posted, if appropriate and available. In selecting scholarship recipients, the following criteria will be considered:
