We are happy to share that IES Abroad is a 2024 GoAbroad Innovation Awards finalist in TWO categories! GoAbroad is a study abroad program listings website, and annually presents Innovation Awards to celebrate and acknowledge the most original, creative, and exceptional ideas in international education. IES Abroad is nominated in the following categories:
🏆 Innovation in Diversity
We are nominated for the "GoAbroad Innovation in Diversity Award" based on our High-Impact Aid Commitment, which is our new approach to awarding need-based aid and scholarships. This is an outstanding acknowledgement because it elevates our commitment and means even more opportunities for students to study abroad.
