Studying Abroad this Summer?

Funds for Study Abroad from the Buffett Foundation
Funds for Study Abroad from the Buffett Foundation

Once they receive the form the Foundation will then review your request and will let you know if they approve your scholarship funds to be used for tuition and fees.

Please Note: Scholarship funds are not available for travel, living, or any other miscellaneous expenses. Scholarship funds may be approved for Study Abroad if you will be receiving credit at UNL for the credit hours (the hours should be listed as a course on your schedule). The classes must count toward your degree and the Study Abroad tuition and fees are billed to UNL.

The scholarship will pay for those credit hours at the equivalent tuition and fee cost at UNL up to the maximum scholarship amount (up to $4,250 for cost of attendance-based on number of credits you take while abroad). The funds are disbursed to your student account with the normal semester scholarship payments (not in advance).

The programs have the same weight as a regular semester. If your term and/or cumulative GPA drops below 2.0 or you do not report grades for the term prior to your program, your approved program scholarship funds may be cancelled or your scholarship may be terminated. Student placed on probation by the learning communities will be required to comply with the probationary guidelines and cannot postpone this probation by studying abroad.
