Looking for Financial Aid to Study Abroad?

Eligible U.S. undergraduates can apply to receive financial support for study abroad programs worldwide through the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Established under the International Academic Opportunity Act of 2000, the Gilman Scholarships provide up to $5,000 for American students to pursue overseas study for college credit.

The Gilman Scholarship Program aims to broaden and increase the study abroad population by aiding undergraduate students who are under financial constraints. The Institute of International Education, a New York-based non-profit organization, currently administers the program through its Southern Regional Office in Houston, Texas under a grant from the Bureau. The program is named after retired New York Congressman Benjamin A. Gilman, the legislation's sponsor.

For eligibility details, an application form, and further information, please check the program's website.
