Global Engineering Access Scholarship

“This scholarship is designed to defray students’ costs for international learning experiences. Eligible costs may also include (but are not limited to) program fees associated with faculty-led programs, third-party provider costs, costs of flights, or other travel expenses associated with a study/research/service abroad experience. This cycle of application is for abroad programs for Winter 2024-2025, Spring 2025, & Spring Embedded 2025 (with May 2025 travel). The committee considers not only financial need (both FAFSA-demonstrated and need that might be missed by the FAFSA), but also the quality of motivation and the educational fit of the proposed activity. Additionally, our office promotes diversity across applications of participation in global experiences.

DEADLINE October 23, 2024.
