Exploring senior high school scholarships for international students

As an international student aiming to attend senior high school abroad, I'm trying to find scholarships that can help with funding. Can anyone share information or experiences on available scholarships for high school students from outside the country?

Sure, I'd be happy to provide some information on scholarships for international students at the high school level. To start, you should be aware that the availability of such scholarships can greatly depend on the country and sometimes even the specific high school or boarding school you're hoping to attend, as not all institutions provide financial aid for international students.

However, certain organizations directly offer scholarships for international high school students, regardless of the school they'll be attending. Organizations like the A Better Chance program, the United World Colleges (UWC) movement, and the Future Leaders Exchange (FLEX) Program all offer scholarships to international students for studying in the U.S. at the high school level.

The A Better Chance Scholars program is designed primarily for underrepresented students, including international students, and can provide financial assistance throughout your high school years. The United World Colleges movement awards scholarships to study in various countries, including several in the U.S. The FLEX Program sponsored by the U.S. Department of State is primarily for students from countries in Europe and Eurasia, offering them the opportunity to spend a year in the U.S. living with a host family and attending high school.

Bear in mind that each of these scholarships has its application process and eligibility requirements, so you'll need to research each one carefully to gauge your chances of being selected.

Finally, also make sure to reach out to the schools you're interested in directly. They may have scholarships available that aren't widely advertised, or they might be able to point you toward other resources. Don't hesitate to ask about financial aid during your admission process.

Remember, securing scholarships can be a competitive process, so applying to multiple scholarships increases your chances of securing funding. Good luck!
