Plan to study abroad next summer or fall? Need funding?

Dean Kimberly Moffitt has pledged to provide a study abroad scholarship to at least ONE student from every CAHSS department/program to ease the financial burden of this experiential activity, while also demonstrating our responsibility for educating our students to be active in the world they will soon lead.

Award amounts will vary, but they will typically be between $2,500 and $5,000. Applicants must be degree-seeking UMBC undergraduate or graduate students with at least one major in CAHSS. Applicants must also meet eligibility requirements for UMBC study abroad programs, and they must apply to study abroad through UMBC. Preference will be given to students with demonstrated financial need as well as to students applying for UMBC faculty-led or exchange programs.

• Deadlines
  • February 10: for upcoming Summer, Fall, Academic Year, Winter, and Spring programs. Winter and Spring applicants not selected may reapply in September.
  • September 10: for upcoming Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, Academic Year. Summer, Fall, and Academic Year applicants not selected may in February.
