ADVANCED LEVEL SCHOLARSHIPS

The Anna C. Robertson Scholarship and the Benjamin Sadtler Memorial Scholarship are awarded on nomination by the Faculty for study in the STM program. Alumni/ae of all Lutheran seminaries are eligible for appointment, but preference is given to graduates of LTSP. Each award provides a cash stipend and a waiver of tuition for a year of full-time resident study. The holder may be invited to do such work of elementary instruction as the Faculty may designate. Depending on the nature of such instructional responsibility, an additional stipend may be paid.

The John Cole Gulick Memorial Scholarship Fund makes the following advanced level scholarships possible.  Additional details are available from the Director of the Graduate Program.

  • Two scholarships, not exceeding $9,000 each, provide tuition support for one year to entering full-time ELCA STM students whose MDiv grade-point averages were at least 3.7. At least one of the two scholarships is to give preference to Latino/a students or students of color. Qualifying students must submit applications by April 30 of the preceding year.
  • Four scholarships, not exceeding $2,000 each, provide tuition support for one semester of full-time study to ELCA advanced level students whose first professional grade point average was at least 3.7 or whose current GPA in the LTSP graduate program is at least 3.7. Applications must be submitted by May 31 for the Fall Semester or November 30 for the Spring Semester.


Tuition aid may be granted to ELCA students with grade point averages of at least 3.6 in their MDiv or current LTSP graduate programs and who are registered for at least two advanced level courses in a Fall-January or Spring-Summer period. Application is to the Financial Aid Committee with supporting documentation as required by the committee.
