Gilman International Scholarship
This scholarship provides awards for US undergraduate students who are receiving federal Pell Grant funding at a 2-year or 4-year college or university to participate in study abroad programs worldwide. Community college students have an excellent chance to be selected for this scholarship because they are typically underrepresented among study abroad participants.

To be eligible for a Gilman International Scholarship, an applicant must meet all of the following criteria:

The applicant is a citizen of the United States. Permanent Residents are not eligible.
The applicant is an undergraduate student in good standing at an institution of higher education located in the United States. Students may be attending a two- or four-year institution. Community College students are particularly encouraged to apply.
The applicant is receiving federal Pell Grant funding during the academic term of his/her application. Applicants must be receiving a Pell grant at the time of application to be eligible.
The applicant is applying to or been accepted for a program of study abroad eligible for undergraduate credit by the student's home institution. Proof of program acceptance is required for final award disbursement.
The applicant is not studying in a country that is currently under a Travel Warning issued by the United States Department of State or Cuba. To find a list of these countries, please see http://travel.state.gov.
The applicant is applying to an academic year, semester, quarter, or short-term program abroad. Short-term programs must be at least four weeks in length.
The applicant is applying to a single-country program. Multi-country programs are not eligible.
