Information about financial aid
The U.S. government believes it is important for citizens to be better educated about the world and is providing scholarship assistance to help college students engage in overseas study. Below are links to additional scholarship opportunities. Read the instructions carefully since some scholarships do have a service component associated with receipt of the scholarship.
All of these scholarships are competitive with other students around the U.S. To be the most competitive it is important to:
- Read instructions carefully and check the application deadlines
- Prepare a draft of your essay and have it reviewed by a faculty member, the Writing Center (Lamson Library) or a study abroad advisor
