The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship is pleased to announce the
opening of its Spring 2003 scholarship cycle. The online application is now
available at the Gilman Program website: www.iie.org/gilman.

Sponsored by the US. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural
Affairs and administered by the Institute of International Education, this
program enables students who have limited financial means to participate in
study abroad opportunities worldwide. The program provides awards of up to
$5,000 for U.S. citizen undergraduate students at two- and four-year
institutions to pursue semester or academic-year long study abroad
opportunities in other countries. To be eligible students must be receiving
a Federal Pell Grant at the time of application and cannot be studying
abroad in a country currently under a U.S. Department of State Travel
Warning or in Cuba. For more information, application deadlines and the
online application please access the Gilman Program website at

A new Advisor section has also been added to the Gilman Program website.
This section contains answers to some of the Frequently Asked Questions we
receive from advisors as well as a flyer on the Gilman International
Scholarship Program which you may print off and post in your office or
distribute to students at your institution. If you, or your students, have
any questions regarding this scholarship program do not hesitate to contact
our office.
