STEP 3 – Attend the Orientation Meet
Attending any one of the Orientation meets is also a pre-requisite for joining Swaraj University. We strongly recommend and encourage you to attend the Orientation meet with your parents/guardians/those who are key stakeholders in your decision making.
The purpose of the Orientation meet is to give you an opportunity to
-
Gain a deeper and more holistic understanding of the process of learning at Swaraj University
-
Get answers to most of your questions about Swaraj University
-
Meet Khojis (learners) who are already on this journey
-
Speak to facilitators of the program about your personal journey
-
Understand whether you should explore this path further
-
See the campus
During your Orientation meet you along with the Swaraj University team will be able to decide whether this program is serving your needs and whether you should participate in Step 4.
During the Orientation meet all applicants will be staying on the campus and parents will be accommodated on a first-cum-first basis. The Orientation meets are also held in the spirit of gift culture.To know more about this please read our Concept of Contribution. The suggested contribution is Rs. 2000 per person attending the orientation meet. You could contribute more to support others who may not be able to afford this. In case you are unable to make this contribution, please feel free to let us know and we will try and raise a scholarship for the same.
STEP 4 – Attend the Mutual Selection Round
In the Mutual Selection Round the participants get a live taste of the life of a khoji by participating in various processes and thus find out if the program serves them or not. By the end of this round, the participants and the facilitators together decide whether or not the participant is ready to join the program. This round is only for those seriously considering to become a khoji at Swaraj University. Parents cannot be a part of this round.
By the end of this round if you decide to join the program, then we request you to make a contribution of Rs. 7500/- to confirm your participation in the two year program.
The new cohort will begin their journey sometime by the mid of August 2019.
