VIPP is pleased to announce that we will be offering scholarships to deserving students for the 2019 Summer School Program at Michigan State University.
We will be awarding 5 students scholarships of $1,000 each towards their summer school program. This scholarship is not a cash prize, instead it will go towards your program fee to cover your lodging and meal cost at MSU. In other words, you will receive a discount on your program fee. You must apply for our program first before applying for a scholarship.
If you fail to secure a US visa to enter US or fail to pay the remaining program fee balance, this scholarship will be forfeited and awarded to other students. One scholarship will be awarded to the best essay received from each of the five regions on competitive basis: 1) Latin and South America 2) South Asia 3) South East Asia 4) Europe or 5) East Asia.
You will need to fill out the following application, as well as submit a short essay and a recommendation letter written and signed by an academic advisor, a professor, or a department chair. Please gather all documents before starting the application.
If you have received financial assistance from your home institution, you are not eligible to apply to this scholarship.
Deadline is April 15, 2019. Awardees will be announced on May 29th on our website and notified individually.
