We believe study abroad should be within reach for every student—no matter their financial background. Your gift to the scholarship fund helps break down barriers and put our mission into motion. It opens doors to immersive global experiences where students gain confidence, cultural fluency, and the skills to lead in a connected world.

Your support can go towards a making a full-time internship abroad (or remote) a reality for students looking to build up their résumés. Through our internship programs, students are placed with a reputable company in the field and location of their choice where they can have an impact, develop professional prowess, and put their education to real-world, professional use.

Financial aid for study abroad tuition is vital, but it is often not enough. This year, we are raising funds for comprehensive aid to help students fund the gap for books, fees, travel, and special experiences. This wrap-around support will ensure that our scholarship students get to take advantage of the full IES Abroad experience, without restriction.

For many students, scholarships alone aren’t enough to make study abroad possible. That’s where travel stipends come in—providing essential support for airfare, visa fees, books, and cultural activities. Your gift helps bridge the financial gap, turning the dream of studying abroad into a reality. With your support, students can fully engage in their global experience—without worrying about what they can’t afford.
