Did you know the
U.S. Department of State provides full scholarships to international and
American high school students to study abroad?
Each year, the
State Department awards competitive, merit-based scholarships to approximately
2,000 of the most promising international students from over 50 countries study
in U.S. high schools, live with volunteer host families, and engage in
extracurricular, leadership and community service activities., At the same
time, approximately 1,000 American high school students receive full
scholarships to study overseas each year.

foreign policy goals by welcoming an international student into their homes and
educating American youth about study abroad scholarship opportunities.

opportunity to learn how 4-H clubs and families can internationalize their
