Miller Institute Neighborhood Scholars Fellowship
Are You Ready to be a Neighborhood Scholar?

Are you are entering your junior or senior year of high school, or have you recently graduated? Do you care about your community and want to make a difference in the world? Do you love big questions and have a passion for deep conversations? Are you open to spending time and sharing space with a diverse community of learners? Are you willing to be courageous about your own commitments and perspectives as well as curious about how others see and things differently? If you answer “yes” to these questions, then you are ready to be a Neighborhood Scholar. Participating in the Neighborhood Scholars Fellowship will enliven your faith and spirituality, enlarge your theological imagination, and expand your sense of calling.
Program Costs and Compensation
There is no fee to participate in the Neighborhood Scholars Fellowship. Room and board, as well as program supplies and expenses are covered. Scholars must pay for their transportation to and from Pittsburgh, as well as any incidental expenses for extracurricular activities. In fact, Neighborhood Scholars receive a $1,000 stipend so they can “earn while they learn.”
