Scholarship Reel: February & March 2018
It's been a while since a reel of any kind was done so let's try to make the most of this one. Some more research was done in regards to scholarships that actually cater to an expansive student base. By expansive I'm talking about international students looking for assistance to help foot the higher education bill.
Locating scholarships of the international nature is easier said than done especially when the requirements for said scholarship don't come any where close to being international. Fortunately my search turned up some promising scholarships. Even better, an actual site.
The site is called IEFA and hosts a nice compilation of resources for students looking for financial assistance. When you get time from your course work, take some time to explore the links on the site; top bar navigation. The About page explains the organization's mission while the Resources page walks you through the process of searching as well as explaining how the scholarship application process works.
Definitely look into the Blog as there's always some useful information included especially in regards to some up coming scholarship opportunities.
PAF's Scholarship for Survivors - The application must be printed and mailed; must be postmarked by February 24. You must be attending school earning a Bachelor's or higher, be under the age 25, be a US resident along with been diagnosed with or treated for a chronic disease within the last five years. More information can be found on the scholarship page where you'll find a detailed to-do list.
ASEV Scholarship Programs -The American Society for Enology and Viticulture have two scholarships up for grabs for students majoring in the study of wines and or grape farming. They're not your typical scholarships but there's a list of criteria that need to be met in order to qualify. The PDFs included within the additional information links houses all that need to be met which include official school documents. Read through everything to make sure nothing is missed nor left out of the application.
