The Dharma Farm seeks to make classes affordable. Toward this goal, we introduce our Tier format. This allows potential students to "drop in" on certain classes before enrolling in them, to see what they are all about. For students interested in the translation path, we offer a Translator's package. To enroll in one full course, the cost is $720 for three months, with payment plans available. This package includes full access to all Dharma Farm perks. Our Translator-plus package allows students to enroll in a translator course and one other full course, plus perks. Our Translator-gold package allows students to enroll in any or all classes of their choice, and includes all the perks.

      For those who wish to immerse themselves in Tibetan subjects that do not include translation, such as spoken or written language, history, or philosophy, membership begins at just $70 per month, and comes with perks such as participation in Member-only forums, guest speaker talks, and individualized assistance from our faculty. Students who want to fully immerse themselves only in non-translation courses (with the perks) can do so for just $30 more per month.​​​

​

     Learning Tibetan language or history, and other topics related to Tibet, is particularly critical for monks and nuns. The Dharma Farm is non-partisan. We offer our courses for free to any member of the Tibetan Buddhist clergy. Please apply through either the Member-Plus or Translation form, and one of our faculty will reach out to you for further information.

​

Beginner’s suite:

       ($10 USD/month) 

     This suite is a month-to-month program, paid for the month ahead, and cancelable at any time (cancellation would go into effect on the final day of the paid-for month). It provides access to any two live class sessions per month, as well as access to any public forums (such as guest speaker series).

 

 Member’s suite:

    ($70 USD/month - 800/annually)

      This suite can be paid month-to-month or annually. If paid annually, the price is discounted as indicated. If paid monthly, it is paid and can be canceled the same way as the beginner’s plan. Members who paid annually but wish to cancel can request a refund that the Dharma Farm will prorate based on the time of the cancellation (rounded to the next month). 

      The Member’s suite provides full access to any one full course per ‘semester’ (does not include Classical Tibetan Translation classes). Full access means access to all class sessions, whether live or recorded, as well as any downloadable materials for the selected course. This suite also includes access to exclusive forums (such as guest speakers not available to the public or other private forums), one free live session per month in any other class (does include Classical Tibetan Translation classes), the monthly newsletter, and any public forums. 

​

Member’s Plus suite:

    ($100 USD/month - 1,050/annually)

      This is the same as the Member’s suite, but includes full access to all courses except Classical Tibetan Translation classes. With this package, students can attend one free live session per month of any Classical Tibetan Translation class.

​

Translator’s program:

    ($720 USD/course)

      To join a translation class, please fill out the form and note your level of familiarity with the Tibetan language. Faculty at the Dharma Farm will consult with you prior to acceptance to ensure the course is a good fit. Note that we are not interested in excluding anyone, but want to ensure that the course will not exceed the student's interest or abilities.

     The Translator's program provides full access to the selected translator's course. This program also includes access to exclusive forums (such as guest speakers not available to the public or other private forums), one free live session per month in any other Dharma Farm class, the monthly newsletter, public forums, and individualized assistance upon request (30 min/month).

      The Translator's package costs $720 per course, with half of the tuition due upon acceptance. The remaining balance can be paid per month over the following two months. Students can sign up annually at a rate of $2,750, which gives full access to one translator's course per block, plus all of the other benefits listed above.​
