General foundation scholarships for international students

I'm looking for any foundation scholarships that are open to international students. Can anyone recommend foundations to explore or how to find these scholarships efficiently? I'd appreciate any advice or personal experiences!

Certainly! While foundation scholarships for international students can be less common, there are a considerable amount that you can still apply for. One you might consider is the Rotary Foundation's Global Grant scholarship. This scholarship provides funds for graduate-level coursework or research for one to four academic years.

Another organization that supports international students is the Fulbright Foreign Student Program. This program provides grants for graduate study and research in the United States to students from around the world.

When looking for scholarships, utilize search tools like Appily or Fastweb. These can be a good resource to find scholarships that are open to international students. When filling out your profile on these scholarship search platforms, be sure to register as an international student to see scholarships that you are eligible for.

Also, don't forget to check with the financial aid office of the colleges you're interested in. They usually have a list of scholarships available for international students. For instance, some colleges offer scholarships specifically for international students such as Columbia University’s Global Scholars Program.

Finally, you could also consider looking at your home country's U.S. embassy or consulate's website. Sometimes they list scholarships for citizens who are interested in studying in the U.S.

Remember, applying for scholarships is a numbers game. The more you apply for, the better your chances of securing one or more. Best of luck in your search!
