Scholarships for Studying Abroad in Northern Europe: Spring 2008 Application Deadline: October 15, 2007
Three $1000 awards are available to help students defray the cost of international travel next year. A student interested in applying for one of the scholarships should be a full-time, undergraduate student in his/her sophomore year or higher who is applying to, or has been accepted into, a Marshall University study abroad program at a university in Northern European. Marshall University currently offers 134 reciprocal exchange programs in 38 countries, including Northern European universities in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, the Netherlands, and Sweden. On a reciprocal exchange program, a student pays tuition and room and board at Marshall and these fees are waived at the host institution; the only additional costs are travel, health insurance, and incidental expenses. All scholarships and financial aid can be applied to the program. Scholarship applicants must submit a statement of purpose essay (1-2 pages) describing the reason behind his/her choice of program and the impact that it will have on them academically, professionally and personally. Application should be made in the academic term prior to the start date of the study abroad program; by October 15 for the Spring term and April 15 for Fall and Summer terms. More information about studying abroad can be obtained from the MU Office of Study Abroad website at http://www.marshall.edu/cip/studyabroad/, or by visiting the Center for International Program's Office of Study Abroad in Old Main 320.
