Illinois Wesleyan offers merit awards up to US$38,000 per year and President's Scholarships covering full tuition, deadline March 15.

Other awards are limited by origin: ADB-Japan for citizens of ADB borrowing countries, MasterCard Foundation for young Africans, and NYU Wagner's African Women fellowship for African women.

None of the 31 entries has a deadline ahead according to the data. A few carry 2026 or 2027 dates, such as Knight-Hennessy on 6 October 2026 and AAUW on 17 Sept 2026, but the rest must be checked on the official page.
Emory University Scholar Programs consider all students regardless of citizenship, and Knight-Hennessy has no citizenship restrictions. Clark Global Scholarship is open to international students who attended school overseas for at least four years.
Yes. Fulbright funds tuition, airfare, a living stipend and health insurance, and Rotary Peace Fellowships cover tuition, room and board, round-trip transportation and field-study expenses.
