Native Ministries Grant Guidelines

• If a student is paying tuition, they are then eligible for funding from the HR MacMillan Fund. Spouses auditing courses (therefore, not paying tuition) are not eligible for funding.

• MDiv students are eligible for the $350 level of funding from the HR MacMillan Fund, instead of the $575. The Native Ministries Summer School is a required portion of their MDiv degree, and therefore it falls under the Continuing Education portion of the Fund as opposed to the Native Ministries Summer School portion.

• Tutors, while they do not take courses or pay tuition, will be eligible for the $350 level of funding as they are an integral part of the Native Ministries Summer School and have expenses that need to be covered.

IMPORTANT
Please be sure to pay particular attention to the budget section naming your expenses, as well as where your support is coming from. While there are some internal parameters guiding the Committee, each application is reviewed on its own merits.

Due to the increasing demand on the Macmillan Fund, the Committee expects that applicants have sought out prior denominational and congregational support, as well as making a personal contribution. If you are unable to contribute, please provide a short explanation. (It is helpful to the Committee if you specify your source of funding – e.g., National Continuing Education, Murrin, special grants, etc.)
