SCHOLARSHIPS
Financial aid is for students with limited financial means and prospective participants from an area of significant conflict or a developing country.
ACT has only a limited number of partial needs-based tuition scholarships available on a case-by-case basis for about 6–8 people out of the approximately 25 who will participate in the IPCR (maximum of $1200). This means that even if you are awarded a scholarship from ACT, you will still need to raise funds for the remainder of the tuition, your airfare to Santa Cruz, Bolivia, visa expenses, and other incidental expenses.
To apply for financial aid from ACT, you must complete the Financial Aid section on the Application Form.
We are sorry that we cannot offer more or larger scholarships. Given the competition for scholarships will be very high, we encourage you to apply to several other possible sources of funding.

Nur University students/alumni only – Special scholarships are available for students/alumni from Nur University. For more information, please contact Mr. Willy Shoaie at Nur University, at wshoaie(at)nur.edu.
