It is important to plan ahead as it is not uncommon for scholarship deadlines to occur much earlier than a 无码专区 or program application deadlines.
There are many study abroad scholarships available for students through 无码专区, our partner programs and other external sources, like the US Government. The OEA can help students with the scholarship search and application process. If a scholarship is found outside of the OEA scholarship page, students should have it reviewed by the OEA to determine if it is a viable option.
