Scholarship Opportunities

Anderson Ranch is dedicated to offering opportunities to promising artists and increasing access to our programs for a diverse group of participants.  Specific scholarships are funded by Ranch supporters, both individuals and foundations, either through endowed funds or special gifts.  A complete list of supporters is available in our Annual Report.

Applicants are encouraged to address the following points, since scholarship applications are reviewed based on:

  • Artistic merit
  • Potential for artistic development through our programs
  • Diversity including age, geographic location, ethnic background
  • Financial need

Most scholarships cover part or all of the tuition; the registration fee, studio fee, housing, meals, travel and supplies are the responsibility of the student.

There is a targeted funding for graduating high school seniors, currently-enrolled undergraduate and graduate students.  You must check the appropriate box on the online application form in order to be considered.
