Short-Term Study Abroad Scholarships

The SAGE Office receives scholarship funding from the Valencia Foundation and Student Development to help offset the costs of short-term study abroad. Please note the following:

1. The amount of scholarship funding for study abroad changes each year and may differ between programs. 
2. Scholarships are awarded based on eligibility criteria.  See the requirements in the section below.
3. There is no separate application for short-term study abroad scholarships.  When you apply to a program, you also apply for the scholarship automatically.
4. The SAGE scholarship amount cannot exceed more than 50% of the total program cost.
5. Some faculty get approved for additional scholarship funding which may increase the amount of a scholarship for one particular program.  This will be reflected on the webpages.
6. Students are limited to one SAGE scholarship per academic year.
