The Visiting Scholar program is available to a limited number of mature scholars who wish to engage in research, usually as part of a paid sabbatical leave from another institution. Individuals applying for Visiting Scholar status receive the following privileges:
The Seminary is not able to guarantee private study space but there are many accommodating spaces in the library, including lockers for storing belongings and books. We do not offer personal computers or printers. There are no requirements for lectures or other services asked of the visiting scholar. Please note that the Seminary is not able to offer occasional employment or compensation of any kind.
Visiting scholars are required to provide their own medical insurance coverage for themselves and accompanying spouses and dependents in advance of their arrival in Princeton. For our international applicants, our immigration liaison can provide additional information.
The Seminary is now accepting applications for the 2024-2025 academic year. The application deadline is December 31, 2023. If you are interested in applying, please fill out the form here:
