Benjamin A Gilman Scholarship
The Gilman Scholarship Program aims to diversify the kinds of students who study and intern abroad and the countries and regions where they go by offering awards to U.S. undergraduates who might otherwise not participate due to financial constraints. All eligible students are encouraged to apply. To be eligible, you must be a Pell Grant recipient and be planning to study abroad for at least 28 days in a particular country.
