The Scholarship Fund
The Hollyhock Scholarship Fund exists to provide support to individuals who require financial assistance to participate in a Hollyhock program. Our goal is to support applicants who will take what they have learned at Hollyhock back to their homes, workplaces and communities.

What Does A Scholarship Cover?
We grant partial tuition scholarships up to one-half of the program tuition fee. Our committee considers only one scholarship application per person, per year.
All scholarship recipients are responsible for paying the balance of tuition plus taxes and fees. A few programs have material fees, in addition to the tuition fee. All scholarship recipients are responsible for material fees, when applicable.
Cortes campus scholarship recipients are responsible for paying the full cost of travel, accommodation and meals, day-use fees (for offsite guests) and taxes and fees associated with attending a Hollyhock program.
What Does Hollyhock Ask of Scholarship Recipients?
We may ask for help from our scholarship recipients in two ways:
1. To spread the word about the program you're attending. We'll send you an electronic program flyer and ask that you share with your friends, colleagues and networks.
2. Onsite, we ask for your assistance with a few small tasks to facilitate the smooth running of your workshop. We'll give you a list of ways you can help when you check in upon arrival.
Programs Eligible for Scholarship Support
Almost all of our programs are eligible for scholarship support. There are a few programs, primarily those that have no tuition fee or are one-day, that are ineligible for scholarship support:
* Restorative Getaways
* Volunteer Service Program
* Read, Write, Create, Explore (Spring & Fall)
* Vancouver programs, EXCEPT The Alchemy of Facilitation (Nov 5-7)
* Metta Vipassana with Mindful Movement (Apr 18-May 9)

Registration & Deposits for Scholarship Applicants
You need to register in your selected program before applying for a scholarship. Please call our registration office, 1-800-933-6339 x232, or fill out an online reservation request form.
As an individual seeking scholarship support, you pay a reduced registration deposit. When you register, please indicate that you intend to apply for a scholarship so that you receive the reduced deposit rate.
Reduced Deposit for Cortes Campus programs: $195 (standard deposit is $395)
Reduced Deposit for Vancouver programs: 50% of total tuition cost (standard deposit is total tuition)
If the Scholarship Committee is unable to offer you a scholarship or if you decline this scholarship opportunity, we will refund your full deposit.
Once confirmed, your deposit is refundable, less a $50 processing fee, if you cancel up to 7 days prior to your arrival. Cancellation 7 days or less before your arrival date results in full deposit forfeit.
We recommend that you register and apply for a scholarship early. Early submission helps your chance of receiving support.
When Will You Hear From Us?
Our Scholarship Committee will meet in mid- to late-February 2012 to review all applications received between December 2011 and February 2012. We email a confirmation of receipt for every application received, however, spam filters and other technical reasons may result in you not receiving the auto receipt. If you do not receive the auto receipt, please contact scholarships@hollyhock.ca.
Thank you for submitting your application. We look forward to seeing you at Hollyhock this year.
