1124 Scholarships to Study in United States

The USA is a prime destination for international students. There are many scholarships in the United States but only so few are fully-funded. The good thing about scholarships in the US though is that they are offered by the US government, American-owned organisations and bodies, and American Universities. The scholarships cut across merit-based, region-based, gender-based and even country-based. Local students also have several merit-based and sport-based scholarship opportunities in the US.

The Fulbright Program offers full scholarships for international students who seeks to earn a Master’s, doctoral degree or non-degree postgraduate education in the States. The grant caters for tuition fee, airfare, textbooks, health insurance and a living stipend. The American Association of University Women awards fulltime research/study fellowships in US to non-US women who are graduate at the US bachelor’s degree level. The fellowship is worth $18000, $20000, and $30000 for Master’s, PhD and postdoctoral students respectively. The MasterCard foundation also partners with several top US universities to award hundreds of disadvantaged Africans scholarships worth tens of millions of dollars. Several US universities (Oregon, Wesleyan, Clark, etc.) and Colleges (Berea, Columbia Dartmouth, Emory, etc.) also offer partially-funded scholarships to international students from all over the world.
