Around the World Travel-Study Grant
http://www.circumnavigators.homestead.com/grant.html
Deadline: Nov. 1
This year the Circumnavigators Club Foundation will award a fellowship worth up to $8000 for an around-the-world travel research project over the three-month period between the junior and senior year. The winner will prepare for the research project during the second semester of his or her junior year and spend the three summer months in actual travel and on-the-scene study. At the completion of the summer and upon return to the United States, the winner will submit a paper on the project and will speak to at least two Circumnavigators Foundation banquets during the succeeding nine months.
The proposal may be no more than four pages in length and must include a description of the project, a rationale for why this would be an interesting or important project to undertake, a proposed itinerary, and an explanation of the relationship of the proposed stops to the overall project purpose.
The trip itinerary must circumnavigate the globe and include stays in at least six countries on three continents. The research project must have substantive content in each of the countries, including wherever possible interactions with local people and groups. Examples of study projects include: youth movements; the death penalty; freedom of the press; care for the aged; the uses of technology in the elementary grades.
Both the school and the Circumnavigators Foundation are looking for interesting, pertinent, and globally-based topics, by persons who can easily think on their feet in any situation they might encounter abroad. Final selection will further be based on a number of factors, including: (a) merit of the subject to be studied, (b) student's academic record, (c) poise, maturity and communication skills, and (d) inherent discipline and enthusiasm of the candidates.
The Michigan Chapter of the Circumnavigators Club sponsors the local competition restricted to Michigan State, Wayne State, and University of Michigan students. An application form is available on this web page. For more information, contact Mary Carroll by mail at 945 Nottingham, Grosse Pointe Park, MI 48230; by e-mail at pillow316@sbcglobal.net, or by telephone at 313-824-6564.
Back in high school, Nick Micinski won a national student award for a public service announcement he made that encouraged people to make a difference. Now the Michigan State University junior hopes to make a difference himself by circumnavigating the globe for a study project. Micinski, of Beulah, is the winner of an $8,000 Around the World grant from the Michigan Circumnavigators Foundation to undertake research on an issue of “global importance.” The summer project will take him to seven countries on four continents to study Muslim “diaspora,” or dispersion, and minority communities around the world.

Crane-Rogers Foundation
Institute of Current World Affairs Fellowships
http://www.icwa.org/Opportunities.asp
Deadlines : August 1, initial letters of interest; September 1, invited applications
WRITE: Institute of Current World Affairs The Institute of Current World Affairs provides promising individuals with an opportunity to develop a deep understanding of an issue, country, or region outside the United States and to share that understanding with a wider public. It does this by awarding fellowships at least two-years long to young women and men who demonstrate initiative, integrity, good communication skills, seriousness of purpose, and enthusiasm for their chosen fields. The Institute invests in individuals who have great expectations and shares with them the risk of uncertain results. The Institute hopes that its fellow will not only grow personally but make significant contributions to public life in the United States and beyond. The Institute frees the fellows from the demands and routine of their professional lives and gives them the time and resources to explore and to fulfill their intellectual promise through a self-designed program of study. Except within the expansive boundaries of "current world affairs," and with the geographic limitation that fellows must study outside the United States, the Institute's criteria are broad. Fellowship candidates must show they are able to carry out their proposed study topic but need not meet any specific educational or other prerequisites. The Institute actively pursues diversity. Fellowships are for self-designed, independent study only. Candidates must be under 36 years of age. While U.S. citizenship is not a requirement, candidates must show that a proposed fellowship holds promise to enrich public life in the United States by enhancing the understanding of foreign countries, cultures, and trends. FUNDING: The Institute provides full financial support for its fellows and their immediate families.

Financial Aid Basics for Advising Undergraduate International Students
Link
Financial aid is perhaps the largest barrier students face when studying outside their home countries. This financial aid resource is designed to help international education professionals who advise students. This resource provides information primarily for nonimmigrant students (F-1, J-1, M-1, etc.). Information for permanent residents of the United States is also included. The Institute for International Education (IIE) reports in Open Doors 2005 that of the paid tuition and fees to attend a U.S. undergraduate institution in the 2004-05 academic year, 80.9 percent of payments came from personal and family sources. Minimal scholarship aid is available to international students, and most of it is reserved for graduate study. Generally, U.S. institutions offer little, if any, discount on tuition. Some public institutions will charge international students in-state tuition rather than charging out-of-state tuition and fees. Both private and public institutions may waive application fees in some situations. Web page provided by NAFSA.

The Marshall Memorial Fellowship (MMF) provides a unique opportunity for emerging leaders from the United States and Europe to explore societies, institutions, and people on the other side of the Atlantic. The MMF program, now in its 23rd year, draws Fellows from 14 European countries and the United States for a three- to four-week traveling program. American and European Fellows each visit five or six cities per trip. They meet formally and informally with a range of policymakers and prominent members of the business, government, political, NGO, and media communities. GMF works closely with partner institutions and individual consultants in each city, providing Fellows with an invaluable local perspective on the transatlantic and domestic issues on the agenda. In 2004, three groups of American Fellows visited 23 European cities, including Brussels, Berlin, Paris, Sofia, Athens, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Barcelona, Warsaw, and Turin. European Fellows’ itineraries took them to 30 American cities and towns, including Denver, Birmingham, Seattle, Chicago, Madison, Lincoln, Boise, Cleveland, Austin, and Washington, DC. Along the way, each Fellow has the opportunity to explore his or her own professional interests beyond the group programs, which focus on a range of domestic and international policy areas.

Rotary Youth Exchange for High School Students
http://www.rotary.org/en/StudentsAndYouth/YouthPrograms/RotaryYouthExchange/Pages/ridefault.aspx
The most powerful force in the promotion of international understanding and peace is exposure to different cultures. The world becomes a smaller, friendlier place when we learn that all people — regardless of nationality — desire the same basic things: a safe, comfortable environment that allows for a rich and satisfying life for our children and ourselves. Youth Exchange provides thousands of young people with the opportunity to meet people from other lands and to experience their cultures. This plants the seeds for a lifetime of international understanding.

Scholar Rescue Fund
http://www.iie.org//Content/NavigationMenu/Programs7/SRF/SRF.htm
The Institute of International Education (IIE) has received an unprecedented gift of $10 million from the internationally-renowned economist/philanthropist Dr. Henry Kaufman to support the organization's Scholar Rescue Fund. Dr. Kaufman, who fled Nazi Germany with his family in the late 1930s, is strongly committed to ensuring the safety and security of scholars whose important academic contributions are jeopardized by repressive or dangerous regimes. The Scholar Rescue Fund has rescued over 50 scholars from 27 different countries since 2002, enabling them to continue their teaching and research and, essentially, saving their academic work. This effort returns IIE to its work in the 1930s when IIE’s Emergency Committee in Aid of Displaced Foreign Scholars helped more than 330 scholars fleeing persecution in Europe.
