Graduate Student Travel Scholarship Opportunity

Deadline fast approaching for grad travel funding (3/31/15)

"I am inspired by the hard work and dedication of scholars. They are incredible forward-thinking minds that are helping galvanize a more peaceful, intelligent civilization."

Nadege Conger, Founder

SabbaticalHomes.com is offering a $1,500 educational travel scholarship opportunity for graduate students (application deadline March 31, 2015).

College is a place for students to ignite their passion for problem-solving, and during this time they are consistently making the world a better place through thoughtful observation, discovery, and application. Traveling is paramount to advancing this type of research and collaboration. But, with the cost of higher education on the rise and the average outstanding student loan balance over $20,000, many students feel they can't afford to travel.

SabbaticalHomes.com is set on changing that …

For the last 15 years, students have been able to afford to travel using SabbaticalHomes.com. This low-fee online home listing service gives academics a real connection with fellow members of their educational and professional community, facilitating comfortable peer-to-peer rentals worldwide. Plus it's more affordable to rent or exchange an apartment over the summer than to leave it empty and rack up more debt by staying in a hotel abroad.

The application deadline for the $1,500 educational travel scholarship opportunity for graduate students is fast approaching (March 31, 2015). More details are available on our blog (and below):
