Gilman Scholarship to Study Abroad DUE 10/1

Gilman Scholarship to Study Abroad DUE 10/1

The U.S. Department of State’s Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program enables students of limited financial means to study or intern abroad, providing them with skills critical to our national security and economic prosperity.

Mark your calendars for three information sessions offered at UNL:
9/7, 1-2pm: Gilman Scholarship Info Session (virtual) https://buff.ly/3iZo71v
9/15, 3-4pm: Gilman Scholarship Info Session (in-person, Union: Chimney Rock room)
9/26 at 2:30-4pm: Gilman Scholarship Writing Workshop (in-person, Union: Heritage Room)

The Gilman Scholarship Program broadens the student population that studies and interns abroad by supporting undergraduates who might not otherwise participate due to financial constraints. The program aims to encourage students to study and intern in a diverse array of countries or areas and world regions. The program also encourages students to study languages, especially critical need languages (those deemed important to national security). Veterans of military service are encouraged to apply, and preference is given to veterans when other factors are equivalent. By supporting undergraduate students who have high financial need, the program has been successful in supporting students who have been historically underrepresented in education abroad, including but not limited to first-generation college students, ethnic minority students, students with disabilities, students attending HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) or other minority-serving institutions, students attending community colleges, and students coming from U.S. states with less study abroad participation.
