StudyMississippi offers study abroad scholarship

The StudyMississippi consortium is offering a study abroad scholarship for an eight-day, non-credit summer program in Belize, Central America (July 11-18). Undergraduate or graduate students with a 2.5 or 3.0 comprehensive GPA, respectively, qualify to compete by completing the application, writing a single page essay on wanting to participate in study abroad, and paying the $10 fee. The submission deadline is May 10, and the winner will be announced on May 15.

The scholarship, which includes international airfare, is offered in collaboration with Monkey Bay Wildlife Sanctuary and Mississippi Valley State University, a StudyMississippi consortium member.
