Nine University of Missouri students will have the opportunity to travel overseas after receiving the United States Department of State’s Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship. The scholarship enables students with financial barriers to study or intern abroad, providing them with skills critical to U.S. security and economic prosperity.
“Gilman is a fantastic opportunity for students to take their college experience to a new level,” said Erik Potter, program manager for Mizzou’s Office of Global and National Fellowships. “Even more, all of the students who worked on their application with a fellowships adviser, a study abroad adviser and a Writing Center tutor have learned how to better advocate for their own academic and career goals.”
This year’s recipients include:
Gwen Blevins
Lindsey Cunningham
Jack Darling
Laci Fuhlage
Indeeera Gavin
Arch Kimbriel
Taya McKnuckles
Lima Sherzad
Emma Tolbert
Students interested in studying abroad with Gilman funding can learn more about the award and the Office of Global and National Fellowships support on the Gilman Scholarship webpage.
