Scholar Abroad Scholarship

Studying abroad has become more than just a way to learn a language. Modern studies suggest college students need more international and cultural knowledge to successfully adapt to society post-college: having an international background is an important tool socially, professionally and educationally.

One $5,000 scholarship is awarded each fall and spring semester and one $2,500 scholarship is awarded for the summer term
