The University of North Alabama’s mission is to be Innovative, Inclusive, Engaged, Evolving, and Global. Education Abroad includes all of these values, and UNA offers a $1,000 Education Abroad Scholarship to support our students’ international experiences. Students are eligible to apply if they meet all of the following criteria:
Students who have received the Education Abroad scholarship in the past are eligible to apply; however, preference will be given to first-time education abroad students. If funds are available following the initial distribution of scholarships, the scholarship committee may issue additional awards.
The scholarship application deadline for the 2023-2024 academic year is January 30, 2024. The application requires students to upload an essay and unofficial transcripts. Students will be notified of their application status by email and will then have a limited time to accept the scholarship award.
