Women of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church in
America (ELCA) offers scholarships in
three categories:
scholarships for Lutheran
laywomen
Opportunity Scholarships for Lutheran Laywomen provide assistance to Lutheran women studying for a career other than ordained ministry.
scholarships for administrative
leadership
The Arne Administrative Scholarship provides assistance to women interested in reaching the top of their field as administrators. The additional education may be pursued through full-time attendance in school, night courses, or summer sessions.
scholarships for ordained
ministry
The Herbert W. and Corinne Chilstrom Scholarship provides assistance to Lutheran women during their final year at an ELCA seminary. Candidates must be preparing for the ordained ministry in the ELCA and have been endorsed by their Synodical Candidacy Committee.
