Our program administers a variety of nationally competitive awards for University of Illinois students and alumni. Opportunities include undergraduate and graduate study, research, and teaching - often in foreign countries.

We provide advice and feedback for candidates throughout the application process. We can help you unlock your potential, learn about yourself, and become more competitive for scholarships.

Interested persons -- from freshmen, to Ph.D. candidates, to recent alumni -- are encouraged to make an appointment to discuss these opportunities.

We look forward to hearing from you!
