Gilman Scholarship Meeting Today! #HogsAbroad

The Gilman Scholarship offers funding for students who have been traditionally underrepresented in
study abroad. If you are either currently receiving a Pell Grant or are Pell Grant eligible, this is a very promising way to get around $5,000 in funding for your study abroad or internship. Learn more at today's meeting!
