Study Abroad Scholarships

CIE Scholarships (guidelines and application pdf) - CIE conducts an annual scholarship competition and awards several $1,000-$1,500 grants to eligible undergraduates. Applicants must be full-time degree candidates who have at least 32 hours earned credit, a declared major, and a 3.0 minimum GPA. Guidelines and application forms are available online and in Hood House 223. Deadline is the end of March.
Foley-Jackson Scholarship for International Studies - Each year, letters are sent to UNH sophomores who are New Hampshire residents, are eligible to study abroad, and who meet the Financial Aid Office’s definition of grant-eligible financial need, inviting them to apply for this special study abroad scholarship.
National Security Education Program (NSEP) - This nationally-competitive program for U.S. citizens is administered on campus through the Center for International Education. NSEP provides grants of varying duration to exceptional students at all levels and in all fields of study who wish to focus on the study of language and culture in areas of the world outside of Western Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Though NSEP accepts applications in all fields of study, it is especially interested in supporting students in education, the sciences, business, health, and technical fields. Students who accept awards incur a service obligation upon their return, equivalent to the length of their stay abroad, which may be fulfilled in specified federal agencies with national security interests.

International Research Opportunities Program (IROP) - UNH undergraduate students from all fields of study may apply in the spring of their sophomore year or the fall of their junior year for substantial grants to conduct nine-week summer research projects abroad. Following a junior year of preparation, students conduct their research during the summer preceding their senior year. Click on program name above for more information.
