Making SST More Affordable
At Goshen College we understand that studying abroad can create a financial barrier for students. Thanks to generous donors, GC has an SST scholarship fund to help students with financial need. Students studying abroad can also apply for outside scholarships with this focus. If you have any questions please contact us at [email protected].
In addition to the scholarships listed below, you may find other options here.

Rotary International is a community organization interested in promoting peace. Local chapters sometimes offer scholarships for study abroad. The current award offered by the Northern Indiana District chapter is a $6,000 scholarship for a student participating in a summer study abroad program. Applicants must be sponsored by a Rotary club within District 6540. Other Rotary Districts may also have offerings for their residents.
