International scholarship opportunities for linguistics students?

I'm super interested in studying linguistics internationally. Are there any scholarships that specifically support linguistics students? I'm looking at Europe or North America as potential study destinations. Would appreciate any advice on where to start!

You're in luck! There are several scholarships available specifically for linguistics students. While the specifics may vary depending on the school and country, here's a general overview:

1. Fulbright Scholarships: Available to U.S. citizens looking to study abroad, the Fulbright Program offers several scholarships for various fields, including linguistics. The specific programs offered can vary from year to year, so I would highly recommend contacting the Fulbright Program directly for their most recent information.

2. DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service): If you're interested in studying in Germany, the DAAD provides many opportunities for students from all over the world. There are scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students, and some of them are specifically for linguistics.

3. Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees: This EU-funded program supports a range of multi-year master's programs in numerous fields. There are several courses in languages and linguistics that offer financial aid. You'll need to look at the individual program pages to find out more.

4. American Association for Applied Linguistics’ Graduate Student Awards: Offered to support research in the field of linguistics, this scholarship requires membership in the organization to apply but is an excellent resource for graduate students.

5. Canada Graduate Scholarships – Master’s Program: If you're considering Canada for your studies, this competitive scholarship provides funding to Canadian students who demonstrate a high standard of achievement in undergraduate and early graduate studies in social sciences and humanities research fields like linguistics.

Remember, many universities also offer scholarships and bursaries specifically for their students, so once you have a list of potential colleges, check their websites for any linguistics-specific funding you could apply for.

Lastly, Scholarship search engines like Appily are also an excellent way to find supplies of funding you might qualify for, including lesser-known scholarships.
