Scholarships
General info for scholarships:
Many institutions and countries provide scholarships for studying abroad. We do not have a list of such organizations, as there are too many and as they are too diverse. In the US, Russian is among the languages chosen by the National Security Language Initiative in 2006 in order to increase the number of students studying abroad.
Please consult with your local university, your local governments, and other organizations for the availability of scholarships.
- FINAID Provides exhaustive explanations of how to get a loan or scholarship. Includes a financial-need calculator.
- FASTWEB Large database of available and searchable scholarships from the US.
- Institute of International Education
- Additional sources for aid to US students
