Scholarships are valuable resources for study-abroad students. Not only do they represent good sources of funding, but the application process itself leads you to focus on your goals for the abroad experience and helps you strengthen ties with your professors. Winning a scholarship will connect you with a community of scholars with similar interests and goals and can open up future opportunities for work and research. Students with international experience make excellent candidates for many postgraduate fellowships abroad. Students are encouraged to contact the Fellowships Office in 105 Carman for guidance on applying and for information on postgraduate opportunities.
