UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS 2027

Application Deadline:  January 15, 2027

LOCATION: USA

Each year, the USF Office of Admissions awards merit-based scholarships to international students. USF will automatically consider you for competitive, merit-based scholarships if you submit and complete the freshman application for Summer or Fall 2027 by January 15, 2027.

ELIGIBILITY:

You will be considered for merit scholarships based on the same academic records used to establish your admission and residency status.

You are not required to submit any additional applications. All accepted students are automatically considered for our admissions merit scholarships.

The number of merit-based scholarships is limited, so we encourage you to complete your application by the January 15 deadline.

Scholarship Options – International Students:

Out-of-State Waivers: These merit-based tuition reduction waivers are awarded to a limited number of admitted first-year students who are not Florida residents.

Out-of-state reduction awards are disbursed as waivers that decrease the total cost of attendance, but they only apply toward out-of-state tuition. These awards cannot be used toward other costs of attendance expenses (housing, meals, books).

They will pay up to the amount of the award, but if the student is enrolled in fewer course credits, the waiver may pay less than the amount awarded.

If the student’s residency status is updated to in-state for tuition purposes after enrollment, the merit-based tuition waiver will no longer apply, the award will be canceled, and it will not be replaced by a Florida resident award.

Please note: The out-of-state, merit-based tuition reduction waivers cannot be combined with another tuition-waiver scholarship (like the Green and Gold Talent Award) since both scholarships waive the same portion of non-resident tuition.

Awarding Notification:

If you are awarded a scholarship, you will be notified via postal mail.

You can monitor your award package via the Student Self-Service portal after we release initial admissions decisions.

BENEFIT:

Green and Gold Presidential Waiver Award: ~$44,000 (up to $11,000 per year)

Green and Gold Directors Waiver Award: ~$36,000 (up to $9,000 per year)

Green and Gold Scholars Waiver Award: ~$20,000 (up to $5,000 per year)

GLOBAL SCHOLARSHIPS FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Application Deadline: May 31st, 2027

LOCATION: Germany

GlobalScholarships.com scholarships are for the Fall 2027 studies and are offered to any eligible prospective or current international student studying in Fall 2027. Their mission is to make scholarships accessible and transparent, and they would like to take one step closer to that mission by offering an external scholarship for a prospective international student.

ELIGIBILITY:

International students planning to pursue their studies outside their home country.

You must meet ALL of the following to be eligible:

You must be an international student; that is, you cannot be a citizen or a permanent resident of a country that you will be studying in Fall 2027.

You must be a current or a prospective student who will be enrolled in a postsecondary degree program (Diploma, Associate’s, Bachelor’s, master’s, or Ph.D., as well as professional programs like law and medicine) in Fall 2027.

They are looking to give this scholarship to a student who has best maximized their potential given their circumstances and will continue to maximize their potential in the future. By “maximizing their potential given their circumstances,” a student who comes from an affluent family and has maximized their potential in one way or another is just as qualified for this scholarship as a student from an impoverished family who also has done the same. They take more of a holistic approach in giving this scholarship, with a combination of merit, writing skills, and the essay describing what they look for in a candidate. They take financial needs into consideration only in the light of “maximizing their potential given their circumstances.”

Application Materials:

A short Google form

500 – 700 word essay on “Describe your educational journey, emphasizing how you have maximized your potential given your circumstances.” In addition, please tell us how you plan to continue to do so after your degree.” – Submitted in PDF file in the Google Form

Selection Process:

They will notify the 3-5 finalists on June 15th – 30th. The finalists will be asked to provide

A copy of their passport with their passport number covered

An acceptance letter from a prospective student or proof of attendance from current students

A written agreement to fulfill social media responsibilities if selected as a winner

Finalists have 10 days to submit those materials from the date that they’ve notified them. After they have received those materials, they may ask the finalists to go on a short Zoom interview call. The winner will be announced on July 15th – 25th.

BENEFIT:
