Overview

Welcome to Fund For Education Abroad Scholarships The mission of the Fund for Education Abroad (FEA) is to provide scholarships and ongoing support to students with financial need who face barriers to participation in education abroad. FEA awards up to $5,000 for a fall or spring semester abroad, with a minimum of $1,000 for short-term programs. Fund for Education Abroad: Alumni Scholarship Made Possible By: Our goal is for every single FEA alumni scholar to unite in an effort to increase access to education abroad for college students. All Alumni Council members (many of whom are also still students) have committed to giving what we can — whether that is $5, $20, or $100! Description: In our efforts to build out FEA’s alumni programming, we thought: What better way for us to give back to the organization that made our transformational study abroad experiences possible than helping to fund the next generation of FEA scholars? This scholarship will be awarded to a deserving student attending a study abroad program. All U.S. citizens or permanent residents currently enrolled as an undergraduate at a college or university in the U.S. who meet FEA’s general eligibility requirements are eligible to apply.
