Additional Requirements

These scholarships are made possible through annual membership fees paid by our AHTPAI members as well as by fund-raising events such as Conferences, etc.  Members will be interested in learning how this Scholarship Program is benefitting students and the community.  Therefore, we require each scholarship recipient to write a letter (max. 500 words) within 3 months after completing their class outlining their progress in their Healing Touch education/studies, and how they are using Healing Touch.  Individual identities will not be disclosed.

 

Application Evaluation Process

Applications will be evaluated by a Scholarship Committee drawn from the AHTPAI Management Committee.  The application questions are designed to inform the Scholarship Committee of the applicant’s need for financial aid, why Healing Touch is important to the applicant, how they will use their new skills and their commitment to continue their studies.

 

Applications are kept strictly confidential by the Scholarship Committee and the Management Committee.  The decision of the Scholarship Committee is final.
