What are some good studying abroad programs?

Studying Abroad: What are the best scholarships/programs available for US college students?

  • I am in community college and interested in doing a year abroad either in Switzerland or France. I speak French. Also interested in other countries particularly Spain and Italy.

  • Answer:

    The countries that most interest you are expensive and popular, and scholarships are few and far between.  If you currently receive a Pell grant as part of your financial aid for college, you are eligible to apply for a http://www.iie.org/Programs/Gilman-Scholarship-Program.  If eligible, some preference is given to students from community colleges.  This is a large program awarding many, many scholarships, so for those qualified, it is well worth applying.  Individual programs sometimes offer scholarships, though those tend to be expensive programs.  You can search websites for scholarships based on your destinations: http://www.studyabroad.com/scholarships.aspx
