Scholarships and Grants

Over the last two years, we have awarded our students nearly $500,000 in scholarships. Generous donors reach out to us regularly because they see our students as future leaders. Consider applying for one or several of our grants and scholarships.

Apart from federal financial aid, the Hazelden Betty Ford Graduate School offers new and current students direct and application-based grant opportunities.
