How to Apply For Our Grants

​​

The application process is straight-forward and consists of 3 stages:

1. The initial application may be submitted at any time during the year.

2. You do not need to have already secured accreditation and other funds for your expected stay in Rome.

3. However, you will not receive the Grant unless you show that you have complied with the requirements set forth above, including accreditation and independent funds.

 

While applicants may submit the initial application at any time, there are two official deadlines each year: May 15 and November 15.
