SCHOLARSHIP DETAILS

American University (AU) Emerging Global Leader Scholarship 2019 – The AU Emerging Global Leader Scholarship promotes educational access and opportunity while enhancing international diversity. Bringing together the best of AU – academic excellence, leadership development, and global engagement – the AU Emerging Global Leader achieves, inspires, and serves with vision. The AU EGL is dedicated to positive civic and social change, and will return home to improve under-resourced, underserved communities in his/her home country.

The AU EGL scholarship covers all billable AU expenses (full tuition, room and board) for one international student who will need a visa (preferably an F-1 or J-1 student visa) to study in the United States. The scholarship does not cover non-billable expenses such as mandatory health insurance, books, airline tickets and miscellaneous expenses (approximately U.S.$4,000 per year).

The AU EGL scholarship is renewable for a total of four years of undergraduate study, based on continued satisfactory academic performance.

Important: Only one AU Emerging Global Leader Scholarship is available for Fall 2019. If you are not selected as the 2019 AU EGL recipient and wish to continue the application process, you may be eligible for partial merit scholarships. However, you will need to submit proof of additional funds beyond the initial U.S.$4,000 you provided. Estimated costs for the 2018-2019 academic year are U.S.$66,717.

  10. Hey there! I realize this is kind of off-topic however I had to
    ask. Does building a well-established website such as yours take a large amount of work?
    I am brand new to operating a blog but I do write in my diary on a daily basis.
    I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my
    own experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any ideas
    or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!

  11. Have you ever thought about creating an ebook or guest authoring on other sites?

    I have a blog based upon on the same topics you discuss
    and would love to have you share some stories/information. I
    know my readers would enjoy your work. If you’re even remotely interested, feel
    free to shoot me an e-mail.

  12. Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be
    on the web the simplest thing to be aware of.

    worries that they just don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out
    the whole thing without having side effect , people can take a signal.
    Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

  16. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something
