SCHOLARSHIPS

Writespace offers two partial scholarships of 50% and 75% to writers in need. To apply, please fill out the application below, and we will inform you regarding the status of your application within a few weeks. To qualify for a scholarship, candidates must exhibit that they face a real financial need, as well as demonstrate commitment to their writing.

Applicants who apply several weeks in advance for a scholarship for a specific workshop will be given priority. Writespace is a nonprofit organization with limited scholarship funding, therefore writers are eligible to receive no more than one workshop scholarship per term. Writespace has three terms per year (summer, fall, winter/spring), so writers can receive up to three scholarships per year. Applicants in need who do not receive scholarships immediately are welcome to apply again within one month of their application submission.

The Writespace Scholarship Program is funded by individual contributions and our annual Indiegogo fundraising campaigns. If you would like to help us make more scholarships available, please donate to the Writespace Scholarship Program here and designate that you are contributing to our scholarship fund in the "Notes" field.
