The below email was sent to all AFS Applicants and Parents for NH22.
Dear AFS Applicant and Parents,
We are excited to let you know that we have launched a new scholarship application for the 2022 program cycle! Should you choose to apply, you will be considered for all available scholarships. This scholarship is open to all applicants in line for any AFS program. The eligibility requirements are:
- Those who have completed the full application (including paying the Program Deposit) and whose application will be transferred abroad.
- Applicants are asked to submit a short video that displays their personality, passion for contributing to the AFS mission, and motivation to study abroad.
- Those who wish to be considered for need-based scholarships must also include the submission of a FAST financial aid application.
AFS-USA’s scholarships are made possible by the generosity of numerous donors who all have a deep connection with AFS and value intercultural exchanges as necessary for the promotion of peace and justice in the world. Your application will be reviewed and matched with the most applicable merit, need-based, geographic, etc. based scholarship, if available. Please note that scholarship awards are extremely limited and that submitting an application does not guarantee a scholarship award. Additionally, all scholarships are partial, and scholarship award amounts will be determined based on program length. For additional funding resources, check out our Fundraising page!
Please note that if you had already opened an application for the Helen “Peggie” Miller Scholarship, your scholarship to-do’s have been automatically updated to reflect the new, current scholarship application. The Helen “Peggie” Miller Scholarship will not be available in the 2022 program year.
If you have yet to add a scholarship application to your account, please select the scholarship tab from your dashboard, and then select the 2022 AFS Study Abroad Scholarship Application.
Please note that the deadline to apply for the scholarship is May 4th 2022, and winners will be notified by June 2022.
For additional questions, please email studyabroad@afsusa.org.
Thank you,
The AFS-USA Study Abroad Team
