F.A.Q.S. |
Don't miss out on study abroad because of financial constraints. Students who are studying abroad have a virtual scholarship world just for them. You don't always have to be a financial aid recipient to apply. Start researching these scholarships at the same time you are applying for one of the EAC programs (or even earlier before applying) so you won't miss any early deadlines.
We’ve broken this website down into the following sections to make your life a little easier.
