Description

The U.S. Study Abroad Branch within the Office of Global Educational Programs of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) announces an open competition to administer the FY2025 Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program (hereinafter referred to as the “Gilman Program”).

Please see the full announcement for contact information and additional details. Note that this opportunity cannot be submitted through MyGrants and may only be submitted through Grants.gov
