The Indigo Health Foundation provides all scholarship award money for our 2023 school year for students.
The applications ask you to dedicate 30-60 minutes to sharing about yourself. You should take that time and give yourself fully to the application process. Take your time, be thorough with each response. We have received the highest number of applicants than ever before in our past year.
We favor applicants who are able to clearly and passionately express their vision for the future. We favor applicants who are called to bring energy healing, crystal healing, spiritual healing and or hypnosis practices into their communities and/or to people around the world.
We favor applicants with past career training or experience and /or college experience or an academic degree (this is favored, not required).
All of our scholarships and grants provide support for up to 87% of tuition costs. Therefore, after a scholarship or grant is awarded, there is a small tuition balance due, we work students to break the remaining balance up into small payments. If you are unable to make any tuition payments, explore our workstudy program.
