Scholarships

Scholarships are one of the most direct ways we expand access to high-quality education in Galápagos. Through our Scholarship Program at Tomás de Berlanga School, we support students with strong potential whose families face financial barriers, ensuring that economic circumstances do not limit educational opportunity. Currently, nearly 38% of our students receive some form of financial aid, reflecting our strong commitment to equity and inclusion.

Our scholarships are designed to provide sustained support throughout a student’s educational journey, not just short-term assistance. Each scholarship represents more than financial support—it is an investment in a student, a family, and the future of Galápagos.

Graduates

Graduation marks the long-term impact of our work. Students who complete their education at Tomás de Berlanga School leave with strong academic foundations, critical thinking skills, and a deep connection to Galápagos. Many have been supported for years—academically, emotionally, and, in many cases, through financial aid—making each graduation a shared achievement between students, families, and the school.

“Studying at Tomás de Berlanga meant understanding that the student experience goes far beyond reading textbooks or completing courses. It is not limited to the physical school space; rather, learning becomes experience and knowledge that gains meaning beyond the classroom, shaping the way we think and the way we act.”

Ever Gómez - Class of 2021

“Tomás de Berlanga left me with a fundamental lesson: learning how to learn. If I did not know something, I learned how to look for it, understand it, and make it my own—a skill that has been essential in my academic training and in my life as a scientist.”
