Emory College Education Abroad is delighted to announce travel scholarships for students participating in a semester Education Abroad program approved by Emory College or an Emory College faculty-led study abroad program for Summer, Fall, or Spring.
For 2024-2025, Summer scholarship awards will range from $2000 to $5,000 and Fall/Spring semester awards will be up to $2,000.
