The GEO Ambassador Scholarship is a scholarship available to UO applying to GEO faculty-led programs, GEO Center programs, Exchange programs, or GlobalWorks Internships. Individual awards range from $500-$1,000.

Scholarship Recipient Expectations:
In the academic year following their return, all scholarship recipients will be expected to act as “Ambassadors” for GEO, sharing their experiences with others on campus, in their community, and beyond. Recipients of the award will select and participate in a limited number of impactful post-program activities that are also of personal interest to them. In some cases, it will be important that you document your experiences while still abroad.

Please note, that scholarship recipients who will not be on campus in the year following their study abroad program can still serve as a GEO Ambassador.

• Must ultimately be accepted to participate in a GEO-sponsored program.
