Stalin's Scholarship


Stalin got a scholarship to a Georgian Orthodox Seminary at the age of sixteen. He did well in that school and was a powerful thinker but he had his own views on things. He rebelled against imperialism and religious order. Although he did pretty well on those things he was expelled in 1899 after he missed his final exams. The seminary suggests that he was unable to pay his tuition fees.
