2011-2012 Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholarship Awards

The Rotary Club of Fresno invites applications for the 2011-2012 Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholarship Awards. The application forms are now available for Fresno State Students with a desire to study abroad for a full academic year.

These study abroad scholarships provide up to $24,000 to cover all regular expenses, such as tuition, travel, room, board, insurance, etc. However, study sites are limited and some only permit 3-6 months for cultural and language study. While abroad, scholars serve as goodwill ambassadors to the host country and give presentations about their homelands to Rotary clubs and other groups. Upon returning home, scholars share with Rotarians and others the experiences that led to a greater understanding of their host country.

Applicants must have completed at least two years of university course work by the time they go abroad and must be citizens of a country in which there is a Rotary Club. Initial applications must be made through the Fresno Rotary Club. Eligible candidates can apply on-line at the following website: . Applications must be submitted by June 1, 2010 for consideration.

For assistance with the application process, have students contact the Study Abroad and International Exchanges Office, Room 111, Family and Food Sciences.
