These awards are available for students participating in a May Term International Travel Courses as well as for those studying on semester-long overseas programs.
For students who receive a federal Pell Grant as part of their college financial package, the Gilman International Scholarship is another potential funding source.

International Student Teaching
Global Gateway for Teachers Program
91快播鈥檚 education majors have the opportunity to spend half of a semester abroad while gaining real-world teaching experience. The rigid structure of most teacher education programs makes it difficult for students to take part in a traditional study-abroad experience. Yet this kind of cultural immersion is vitally important for future teachers, because it helps them develop the flexibility and perspective to work successfully with students from different cultures in their own classrooms back home.
The Global Gateway for Teachers (GGT) is designed to give students those multicultural student experiences while also fulfilling their degree requirements for student teaching. After successfully completing their initial 8-week long 鈥渟tateside鈥� student teaching placements, participants can then complete the second half of their student teaching experience abroad in one of GGT’s program locations.
Global Gateway's Rave Reviews
The Global Gateway for Teachers Program program is one of the most rigorous and innovative study abroad experiences available. It has been honored by:
The International Awards for Innovative Practices in Higher Education
The Goldman Sachs Foundation Prizes for Excellence in International Education
The AACTE鈥檚 Best Practice Award for Global and International Teacher Education
