Books
Each year of study has required texts and training manuals. These
can be purchased from our bookstore. Proceeds from our bookstore
are used solely to support One Spirit Interfaith Learning Alliance
Programs. Most are also available commercially.
Donations
As for most educational organizations, the tuition we charge does
not cover our operating costs.
If you are in the financial position to invest more than $3100 per
year in your education, we very much appreciate any additional contribution
you are able to make. You may also consider sponsoring all or part
of the education of a classmate. Contributions over and above the
required tuition are tax deductible as a charitable contribution.
Make donations on-line here.
Financial
Aid
If you are committed
to this program, we at One Spirit are committed to helping you make
it happen.
Policy
Financial aid requests will be considered only after the
admissions process has been completed and you have been accepted
to the program.
Financial assistance is available in the form of work-study for
those whose financial challenges prohibit them from enrollment.
Each request is carefully assessed in terms of financial need and
available funds. Our bursar will also work with each student to
explore other creative forms of tuition payment and potential sources
of financial assistance.
At One Spirit we are committed to helping you achieve your goal
of study.
Work-Study
One Spirit has a limited number of work-study positions available for both attending and distance-learning students. Most positions are of an administrative/clerical/research nature. However, we are open to other ideas or needed services that reflect your individual strengths and areas of specialization. Work-study is offered in the spirit of reciprocity and building of community. Your commitment to your work-study assignments will be reviewed on a quarterly basis. Failure to fulfill your work-study obligation may result in suspension of your financial aid and resumption of your financial obligation.
Optional Payment Plan
In some rare instances a student may need to vary from the traditional payment schedule in order to effectively budget their full tuition costs. This must be arranged with the bursar prior to enrollment, after showing the reasons for a variance.
Note: All awards, tuition abatement and aid are contingent upon satisfactory course work and participation. Failure to maintain satisfactory course work may result in a suspension of funds.
Note: All awards, tuition abatement and aid are on a case-by-case basis, and will not be automatically carried over into the next year of study.
Applying for Financial Aid
After you've been accepted, contact the admissions office at admissions@onespiritinterfaith.org or 212.931.6840 x51.
