Are you considering studying abroad and receiving the Federal Pell Grant? Then the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship offered through the US Department of State is for you! In this session, we will cover what the scholarship is, eligibility requirements, how to apply, and application tips.

The Gilman Scholarship aims to help undergraduates who have been under-represented in study abroad. This includes students with high financial need, students in under-represented fields such as the sciences and engineering, students from diverse ethnic backgrounds, and students with disabilities, among others. To be eligible, students must be receiving a Federal Pell Grant at the time of application or during the time they are studying abroad. Please review the full eligibility requirements on Gilman's website.

The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship deadline (October 10, 2024) is fast approaching for programs starting between December 1, 2024, to October 31, 2025.
