What scholarships are open now for international students?

I'm trying to figure out what scholarship opportunities are currently available for international students. Are there any scholarships open now that I should be applying to, or a resource that lists these scholarships?

As an international student, scouring through scholarship opportunities can be a truly daunting task. Don't worry though, there are indeed scholarship opportunities for which you can currently apply.

One such scholarship is the Fulbright Foreign Student Program. This program enables students from around the world to study, conduct research, and/or teach abroad in the United States. Keep in mind that it caters largely to graduate students, but some countries also allow undergraduate students to apply.

Another scholarship you might want to look into is the "Aga Khan Foundation International Scholarship Program" which targets students from select developing countries who have no other means of financing their studies. The scholarships are awarded on a 50% grant and a 50% loan basis through a competitive application process once a year.

For undergraduate studies, the "Clark University Global Scholars Program" Scholarship is also an option. This scholarship offers a $15,000 to $25,000 per year merit scholarship and a guaranteed $2,500 taxable stipend for a paid internship or research assistantship.

Lastly, the "IEFA" website is a great hub to find and apply for scholarships. It's a free search engine that compiles a comprehensive list of scholarships for international students, and you can filter the results based on your study level (graduate vs undergraduate) and your home country.

Remember to look closely at the specific criteria and deadlines for these scholarships as they can vary significantly. I hope this is a start for your scholarship search. Good luck!
