Does Anyone Know Of A Study Abroad Scholarship That Would Cover All Costs For Study Of A Foreign Language?
The language is French and by the time I would be applying I’d be a graduate. I will probably graduate Magna *** Laude and I also am a member of the Honors Society Pi Sigma Alpha. My major is Government BS Political Science. It’s just I’m having trouble finding a study abroad scholarship or fellowship that would cover all of my tuition at a foreign institution namely in Paris/France or even Belgium or Switzerland as a Graduate. For the career I want to get into I would need to know French fluently, and I plan on joining Law School immediately after the study abroad. I thought of getting a job at a consulate or embassy in one of those countries and just try to learn the language as I go, since I’d be immersed in it everyday anyway, but they all require that the applicant should know French fluently already! So does anyone know of a fellowship/scholarship that would cover these costs and somehow stall my payments to my Undergrad University?
Thanks so much.

You don’t need to be in France to learn French. Anyway contact Alliance Francaise for further help.http://www.alliancefr.org for language assistance.
For Education in France: http://www.campus-france.org/en/
No way you can avoid fees though.
All the best.

Go to the library and look at their scholarship books. I know one is called Petersens Scholarships, awards and prizes. You can get scholarships based on your ethnic background, major, and even the state you live in. Did you know that there is about $3 million available in scholarships that people never apply for? Take the time to find what you need in scholarships, and I bet you will find it.
