Announcement: External Scholarship Opportunity: Frederick Douglass Global Fellowship, Summer 2021
Apply for CIEE’s Frederick Douglass Global Fellowship, a full scholarship to study abroad this summer with a cohort of student leaders from around the country.
The Frederick Douglass Global Fellowship was founded to empower students of color with a transformative experience abroad, much like Frederick Douglass was inspired by his travels. All program fees are covered, as well as airfare.
This year’s cohort is co-sponsored by the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs to commemorate the 175th anniversary of Douglass’s four-month journey around Ireland. You’ll be based in Dublin and visit other cities where Douglass campaigned, while meeting with government leaders and social justice activists.
This opportunity is offered by CIEE, a student exchange organization whom SJU partners with. All eligible students who submit an application also qualify for a $1,500 scholarship towards any CIEE summer program.
Learn more about the program, eligibility requirements, and application process on the CIEE website here.
Students will also need to complete a brief Non-SJU Summer Program application with the CIP and complete any SJU pre-departure requirements, including a mandatory Health & Safety Training.
Interested students are encouraged to meet with a CIP staff member to discuss their plans, application resources, and next steps! You can set up an appointment via Starfish, or email us at studyabroad@sju.edu.
