Graduate School in Palo Alto, CA Builds Bridge to Europe through Scholarships
Institute of Transpersonal Psychology Offers Scholarships to European Transpersonal Association Members
The Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (ITP) is pleased to announce a new ITP/EUROTAS scholarship for members of the European Transpersonal Association (EUROTAS), in celebration of the long and historic relationship and affinity of mission and values between the two organizations.
The decision to provide scholarships to EUROTAS members grew out of a recent visit by ITP President, Neal King, to the annual EUROTAs Conference, held this year in Bulgaria. Conference attendees from 25 countries included EUROTAS veterans of up to four decades as well as college students new to the field of transpersonal psychology. Schools in Italy, Russia and Estonia have expressed interest in collaborative relationships with ITP, and a number of attendees expressed interest in coming to ITP for their next degree.
ITP President, Neal King, explains, "ITP became an institutional member of EUROTAS at this meeting, and at a celebratory dinner EUROTAs President, Ingo Jahrsetz, said in a toast that evening that it was a 'great honor' for them to have ITP as a member. It was clear throughout the conference that EUROTAS members have great respect for ITP. I'd be very surprised if we don't see a new population of students and guest faculty from Europe over the next few years."
The ITP/EUROTAS scholarship is available only to non-residents of the USA, and provides an automatic 25% reduction in tuition. Applicants will need to satisfy all regular ITP admissions policies and procedures, as well as adhere to all lTP academic standards and policies. It will be available for qualified applicants for the life of their degree program as long as they maintain satisfactory academic progress toward an ITP degree.
