Scholarship Opportunities

There are a number of ways to make study abroad experiences affordable. For students who study at our partner university, you’ll pay roughly the cost of in-state tuition, fees, room, and board and some corporate hosts even provide housing or a housing stipend.

Language Scholarships

URI students are highly competitive in state and national scholarship programs including the Beatrice S. Demers Foreign Language Fellows Program, the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship, the Boren Scholarships and Fellowships and the Critical Language Scholarship (CLS) Program. Visit the scholarship section for your language for additional opportunities.

Study Abroad Scholarships

Scholarships Compiled by URI’s Office of National Fellowships and Academic Opportunities

Computer Science students are excellent candidates for local and national scholarship programs and the Office of National Fellowships and Academic Opportunities helps many of our students identify additional scholarship and fellowship opportunities and apply for scholarship opportunities for foreign study. Some examples of study abroad funding are found below.

URI Faculty-Led Program Scholarships

The Office of International Education has limited funding for student scholarships and provides financial awards ranging from $100-$500. To be considered for the scholarship, please complete all application requirements via URIAbroad. Eligible applicants must: 1. Be a URI student. 2. Be admitted into a URI Faculty-Led Program or have submitted an application. 3. Have not received a scholarship for a previous URI Faculty-Led Program. Application dates: Summer Term, April; Winter J Term, October; and Spring Term, November.

The Office of National Fellowships

The University of Rhode Island Honors Program nominates students for many prestigious national and international awards such as Fulbright and Goldwater scholarships. You can receive guidance from the Office of National Fellowships on funding for your study abroad experience. The office hosts information sessions during the course of the year to help you manage the process, from the planning and application, through the award stages. Information sessions and scholarship information are posted regularly on their website.

Internship/Research Funding Opportunities

Arts and Sciences / Harrington School Internship Fund

Internships are a great way to build experience and get leg up on the job market. But many internship opportunities are unpaid, making them less accessible for many students. The Arts and Sciences/Harrington School Internship Fund offers $1,000 stipends for undergraduates participating in an internship opportunity. The funding can help to cover costs associated with transportation, professional attire, and food at the job site. It can also help to offset the need to work a paying job during the internship period. Find eligibility requirements and apply by clicking the button. Applications due in either September (fall) or January (spring).
