Education Abroad

Experience other cultures while earning Penn State credits toward your degree. Students can go abroad as part of a course or for a semester or year. (You don’t even need to speak a second language—unless that's what you choose!) Scholarships are available, too. Attend an info session to find out more.

Scholarships, Fellowships, and Grants

A prestigious fellowship or scholarship, like a Fulbright or Rhodes, provides funding and fast-tracks your career. Other smaller scholarships will enhance your résumé and help with tuition. Find the right opportunity and get advice about writing a competitive application at one of our info sessions or by meeting with us.
