StudyAbroad.com and The Scholar Ship Partner to Offer Study Abroad Scholarship Grants to College Students Worldwide

Leading online study abroad directory StudyAbroad.com has partnered with The Scholar Ship to provide $5,000 USD study abroad scholarship grants to 25 college students to study onboard The Scholar Ship’s oceangoing campus.

The study abroad scholarship grants are awarded to undergraduate and postgraduate students who are interested in learning while traveling the world. Students interested in the scholarship program must submit a registration form through http://www.studyabroad.com/the-scholar-ship.html.

StudyAbroad.com, a resource of EducationDynamics, is committed to helping as many students as possible study abroad. In addition to providing a free directory of study abroad programs in more than 150 countries, the site often offers financial aid for study abroad in the form of various scholarships. This unique partnership marks a milestone for Study Abroad.com, however, as this is the largest number of students to benefit from a single scholarship program.

“The opportunity to study on a ship is unparalleled,” says Josh Irons, manager of StudyAbroad.com. “We are honored and delighted to be able to work with The Scholar Ship to make the dream of studying abroad a reality for so many worthy students. We truly feel like we are helping to arm students with the global knowledge needed to become highly productive professionals.”

The study abroad scholarship grants will be awarded to students with a demonstrated record of academic achievement and economic need.
