Do you receive a Pell Grant? Are you interested in expanding your global perspective by studying or interning abroad? Please join International Programs for one of several information sessions to discuss the process of applying for a Gilman Scholarship. 

The Gilman Scholarship, funded by the U.S. Department of State, aims to encourage eligible students (U.S. citizens, undergraduates, Federal Pell Grant recipients) pursuing academic credit-bearing, study/intern abroad programs outside the United States.
