Study Abroad Scholarships
We are now accepting applications for our 2025 fall study abroad program in Ireland, exclusively for current Davidson-Davie students (students from other colleges and community members are not eligible).
Partial scholarships typically range from $250 to $1000 (sometimes more!) and are awarded as the final payment. If awarded a scholarship, the student must pay all required out-of-pocket expenses by the payment deadlines in order for the scholarship to kick in. Some scholarship funds are available for eligible students in a Davidson-Davie nursing program and the Davidson-Davie TRiO Program!
Where are the different programs?
For 2025 fall, we have planned a program for Ireland.
Eligibility:
- Complete at least 12 credit hours by May 2025 and remain enrolled at Davidson-Davie in fall 2025.
- Commit to the 2025 fall Ireland program by completion of the interest form.
- Enroll in the trip’s accompanying course.
- Preference may be given to students with a GPA of 2.5 or higher, and Scholars of Global Distinction participants; but consideration will be given to the entire contents of the application, especially the essay.
- Applicants may also be asked to interview with International Education Committee members.
Application Deadline:
