We can invite up to 35 participants for The Franciscan Experience Summer Institute. We are looking for those who are mission-oriented, seeking to find meaning and purpose, have a theological itch, and a heart for serving others – especially the poor. Applications are reviewed by the TFE Summer leadership team consisting of FranU faculty, staff, and students. They are prayerfully considered and we expect all responses to be authentic and honest.
Disclaimer: While we wish to accept all who wish to participate, having a cap on participation is essential to the mission of TFE Summer and for logistical reasons regarding our service sites. We appreciate your understanding.
We have 6 more spots available for TFE Summer 2023. Applications will be considered and reviewed on a first-come-first-serve basis until all spots are full.
First step is to complete the short answer portion below. Upon completion, save the document as a PDF, click the "Apply to TFE" button to be guided to the application where you will complete the information and upload your responses.
Please respond to these 6 short answer questions. We ask that you give at least 5-7 sentences per question. The goal is for us to get a genuine sense of where you are in your life and what experiences have formed you the most. Again, honesty and authenticity are key to reflecting on and answering these questions. Challenge your reflection and we look forward to getting to know you!
