It is our belief that the opportunity to enact a vision fast or enter into a relationship with soul under experienced guidance should not be limited by a person’s economic status. Therefore, we are committed to offering scholarships and short-term payment plans to those who are ready for the journey but would be unable to participate without such assistance.

Our scholarships are made possible by generous gifts, donations and grants from the greater community of Animas Valley Institute. Scholarships are awarded on a first-come first-served basis and are subject to the current balance in our scholarship fund per program.

We encourage you to seek other forms of funding as well ~ perhaps from your community, other organizations, funding sites like gofundme, or your family and friends. Our goal is to help as many people as possible – seeking funding from other sources will help us do that!

Applications are reviewed once a week by our scholarship team, so please allow at least two weeks to hear back from us. With this in mind, it may be best for you to pay the program's 30% deposit to secure your place while the scholarship team reviews applications. Incomplete applications will be returned to you to complete before we are able to respond to your request.

Scholarships are based on a first-come-first-served basis and are subject to the current balance in our scholarship fund, as well as factors you supply on your financial aid application.

Please note – scholarship recipients will receive the standard housing option and are not eligible for room upgrades (unless medically necessary). 

For those requesting a payment plan, please suggest a specific plan. Monthly payments should be at least $100 and will be designed to pay the balance of your program cost 30 to 60 days prior to the program start date. If you receive a 70% scholarship we will not offer a payment plan on the remaining 30%.  For monthly autopay, payments must be guaranteed by credit card – we are unable to set up automatic payments via PayPal.

If your local currency is other than U.S. dollars, please convert your answers to the financial questions into U.S. currency amounts.
