The deadline is approaching for the Illinois for Illinois (I4I) and International Programs & Studies (IPS) Donor-Funded scholarship applications.  Both scholarships are used to fund study abroad opportunities for Illinois students.  I have sent notifications to undergraduate students who intend to study abroad during Winter Break 2012, Spring 2013, and Calendar Year 2013.  Please feel free to forward the following information to colleagues and students and direct questions about the scholarships to me.

The final deadline to apply for the Illinois for Illinois (I4I) and International Programs and Studies (IPS) Study Abroad Undergraduate Scholarships for study abroad programs during Winter Break 2012, Spring Semester 2013, and Calendar Year 2013 is September 17, 2012. The application closes at midnight. Do not miss this deadline!

·         UIUC undergraduates who are participating in an upcoming University-approved study abroad program are eligible to apply for the I4I.  Last year, approximately 1 in 4 applicants received an I4I Scholarship.

·         UIUC undergraduates with a 3.0 or above who are participating in semester-length programs abroad (unless otherwise noted on the website) are eligible to apply for IPS Donor-Funded Scholarships.  The applicant success rate for IPS Scholarships is approximately 1 in 12.
