The Collegeville Institute provides financial assistance to help international scholars and other persons participate in its Resident Scholars Program or Short Term Resident Scholars Program. The support addresses residency fees that would otherwise prevent participation or create financial hardship. It is intended to make residency opportunities accessible, rather than fund a particular research topic or defined project.
Based in Collegeville, Minnesota, the Institute brings scholars together for independent research and writing within a community of study, dialogue, and prayer. Resident Scholars combine their own work with weekly seminars, prayer, and shared lunches with fellow scholars, Institute staff, and monastic liaisons from Saint John’s Abbey. The residency programs invite people exploring Christian identity and unity in a religiously and culturally diverse world.
