Scholarships Now Available for FICAM Students!

We are pleased to announce that, due to a recently received donation, two different types of scholarships are now available for FICAM students who are scheduled to pay full tuition and who have a financial difficulty in doing so.

1. FICAM MERIT SCHOLARSHIP

The FICAM Merit Scholarship is based first on merits of the applicant as they have demonstrated their commitment to their spiritual growth or to the community in providing some time of service.

Four candidates will receive this award in the amount of $7,500. The scholarship funds will be credited yearly as the final $2,500 in tuition payments. 

Applications will be considered from those who:
1. Demonstrate their existing difficulty in affording tuition.

3. Agree to contribute their services during in-house training periods, which could include preparation of classroom, running the FICAM.tv switchboard or other functions as directed by the FICAM staff.

*Failure to meet these above standards will result in the withdrawal of the scholarship.
