International Student Scholarship Resources

International Student Affairs and Programs (ISAP) [email protected]

IIE Funding Study: http://www.fundingusstudy.org/ Start here! Great website to sort through very specific international student scholarships.

Fastweb: http://www.fastweb.com/ Create a profile and have scholarship information sent to you.

IEFA: http://www.iefa.org/scholarships Can search scholarships, grants, and loan options.

International Scholarship: http://www.internationalscholarships.com/ Can search based on major and country of origin.

Zinch: http://www.zinch.com/scholarships/search Can search based on level of schooling (high school, college, graduate) and GPA.

AAUW: http://www.aauw.org/what-‐we-‐do/educational-‐funding-‐and-‐awards/ Specific for female graduate students. International Student Voice: http://www.isvmag.com/scholarship/ Limited Scholarships-‐ but good resource for career, immigration, working in the US, etc…

A word of caution: If a scholarship has an application fee, don't apply. If you have to pay money to get money, it is probably a scam. For more information about scholarship scams, the unclaimed aid myth, and related topics, see the Scholarship Scams section of the FinAid site.

**If you are an international student seeking a private loan, please note that additional lenders may exist other than those listed in the resources above. You are not required to borrow a loan and/or select a lender from the resources provided above. CCA will process private loans from any eligible lender you select. CCA may not deny the choice of a lender or cause unnecessary delay in loan certification for any eligible student.

Although US citizenship is not a consideration, applicants must live in the United States and plan to enroll at an accredited program in the US in order to qualify. Early grantees have been active in the struggle against racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of oppression; building the movement for economic justice; and creating peace through international, anti‐imperialist solidarity. Grants are for one year although students may re-‐apply for subsequent years. Deadline: March 31 International Chapter P.E.O. Sisterhood P.E.O. International Peace Scholarship Fund For Women-‐ Graduate level only http://www.peointernational.org/peo-‐projectsphilanthropies Applicant must be a non‐US or Canadian citizen who is a woman working towards a graduate degree (full-‐time) at a college or university of her choice in the US or Canada.
