Scholarships: The Key to International Financial Aid
The rising costs of visa applications, general cost of living and tuition expenses all add up to make the final bill extremely daunting. The International Scholarship database has recently been re-launched to fill this void, making it easier for students to tap into funding sources.
London, UK (PRWEB) June 21, 2005 -- It's well documented that studying abroad in another country is an extremely fulfilling experience. New lives, new cultures, new surroundings all open your eyes to this vast world we live in. In reality, only a small percentage actually get to study abroad with most students citing financial reasons for not doing it. The rising costs of visa applications, general cost of living and tuition expenses all add up to make the final bill extremely daunting. The International Scholarship database has recently been re-launched to fill this void, making it easier for students to tap into funding sources.
As Ross Mason, Director of InternationalScholarships.com states, "there is a vast untapped resource of financial aid options available to students studying in a foreign country. Scholarships, Fellowships, Assistantships, Grants, Internships are all available but many students either don't know this or can't find them."
The restructuring of the InternationalScholarships.com database has now meant that students can search online, at no cost, and locate awards they might have never known about. "The funding is there, its just a matter of providing an easy access point to locate it" says Mason. "With the changes that have been made, students can now search by award type, country location or field of study, making it easily accessible to all students".
The database also currently holds over 1,000 awards, all from companies, organizations and schools that can offer some form of financial assistance. This totals to over $1,000,0000 in funding available making it one of the most comprehensive and useful resources for students.
