More Info

The Oxford Rotary Club is accepting applications for schoalrships to study in a foreign country during the 2005-06 academic year. Applications will be accepted from students enrolled at Miami University or from students studying elsewhere whose permanent address is in the Oxford area. Candidates cannot be a Rotarian or a relative of one.

The scholarship is for one regular academic year (usually nine months) to study at an institution preferred by applicants and selected by the Rotary Foundation Trustees.

The Oxford Rotary Club may nominate one person and an alternate to compete for a Rotary Foundation Academic Year Ambassadorial Scholarship funded by contributions from local Rotary Clubs. The scholarship award is to be used for round-trip transportation, tuition and fees, and reasonable living expenses up to $25,000 depending on costs at the assigned institution.

Persons in a bachelor or advanced degree program may apply for support to pursue additional studies. Applicants must have completed two years of university or college work when the scholarship begins. Recipients must study in a country other than their own, and at an institution at which they have not studied previously. Applicants whose native language is different from that of the country in which they intend to study must demonstrate evidence of ability to read, speak, and write the host language.

Application due date: TBA
