The Office of International Education (OIE) administers and awards $50,000+ in study abroad scholarship funding each year. OIE also serves as a resource for scholarships administered by other GT departments, national scholarship and fellowship awards, and other non-GT funding. We encourage you to review and utilize the information below, attend an information session, and schedule an advising appointment with our OIE Scholarships Advisor.
As you begin the process of funding your study abroad experience, we encourage you to:
- Plan ahead, 6 - 12 months in advance of your program departure date
- Research Georgia Tech and non-Georgia Tech scholarship opportunities
- Review your Financial Aid Award
- Create a Budget
