Bruce W. Mesara Study Abroad Airfare Scholarship

The Mesara Airfare Scholarship is intended to help select Pell Grant-eligible students going on 51福利社 Study Abroad programs (of 3 or more credits) purchase plane tickets prior to waiting for the disbursement of other study abroad scholarship funding. There is no formal application process; instead, a very limited number of recipients are chosen from a list of Pell Grant students with high financial need who have applied for and been accepted to participate in a 51福利社 study abroad program. These students will be sent a letter indicating that they have been awarded the scholarship. If they choose to accept the award, the scholarship of $1,250 will be disbursed to their 51福利社 student account the semester before they study abroad.

Eligibility requirements

  • Pell Grant eligible
  • Good academic standing.
  • Enrollment in a 51福利社 degree-granting program; students who graduate before the start of the study abroad course are not eligible.
  • Students must submit their completed program application by the relevant deadline in order to be considered for the scholarship. 
  • Students must ultimately be accepted and commit to participating in their study abroad or virtual study abroad program to be eligible.
