Thanks to our generous donors, we can offer qualified applicants discounts on registration and reimbursement for their travel costs.
Scholarships are awarded for merit, on a first-come, first-serve basis. We award scholarships to two categories of applicants:
1) If you are a serious student of Ayn Rand’s ideas, whether you are in university, high school, or studying philosophy on your own, you are eligible to receive a travel scholarship to ensure you are able to attend AynRandCon.
2) If you take Ayn Rand’s ideas seriously in your life and are eager to attend AynRandCon, hopefully for your first time, in order to meet a group of like-minded people. Perhaps you’re no longer a student, but the cost of the conference or travel is too steep. We’d still like you to consider being part of our community, please fill out the form below.
You do not need to register for the conference before applying to this scholarship.
The application deadline was March 7, 2023 at 11:59 p.m. US Pacific Time. It is now closed.
