Where can U.S. students find scholarships to study in Europe?

I'm a junior in high school interested in studying abroad in Europe. Do you know of any scholarships available for U.S. students looking to study there? I'm curious about both undergraduate programs and short-term summer options.

Absolutely, there are definitely scholarships available for U.S. students who wish to study in Europe, whether for an undergraduate degree or short-term summer programs.

For students seeking to pursue an undergraduate degree abroad, certain countries provide scholarships specifically for international students. For instance, the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) offers funding to Americans who wish to study in Germany. Also, Finland and Norway have been known to offer programs in English with no or low tuition fees.

For short-term summer programs, you may look into programs like the Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE), which offers a variety of scholarships for their summer abroad programs. The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs under the U.S Department of State also sponsors several programs like the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship for undergraduates with limited financial means.

Additionally, wind down your research to specific universities as well. Many overseas universities offer scholarships aimed at international students. These scholarships can range from partial to full tuition coverage. For example, the University of Oxford has various scholarships for international students. Furthermore, scholarships may sometimes be provided by the organizations organizing the program, so it's wise to check with them as well.

Don’t forget that CollegeVine also provides a plethora of resources to help guide you on finding scholarships for studying abroad. Be sure to properly strategize your application such that your personal attributes and experiences align with the scholarships you’re applying for. Lastly, always check out the scholarship's eligibility requirements and the specifics of what the scholarship covers.

Best of luck in your search and future studies in Europe!
