Scholarships for international Ï㽶ÊÓƵs

IU Bloomington offers several scholarships specifically for international Ï㽶ÊÓƵs. These awards recognize your academic achievement, leadership, and global perspectives—and help make an IU education more accessible for Ï㽶ÊÓƵs from around the world.

Funding opportunities designed for Hoosiers from abroad
