Grants and Scholarships

If you are currently receiving institutional and/or federal/state aid you may be eligible to apply it toward your education abroad tuition and/or your Electives Abroad/Away or International Consulting program fees. You are encouraged to meet with your Student Financial Services counselor if you receive financial aid, scholarships, or grant funding. They can help you review your eligibility before committing to an education abroad program.

There are numerous additional (non-Babson) scholarship and grant opportunities to help fund your education abroad experience. It is up to you to investigate these opportunities and determine your eligibility. We have compiled a list of more commonly sought scholarship and grant opportunities. You are encouraged to do additional research for local and/or private scholarship / grant-funding sources.
