The TODOS (The Outcomes-Based Diversity Outreach Strategy) MSI Scholarship is focused on removing the barriers that often keep underrepresented groups, specifically from MSI’s, from studying or interning abroad.
This group includes, but is not limited to students with diverse race, ethnicity, sex, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, age, or veteran status.
Please note this scholarship is only open to those attending Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU’s), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCU’s), Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI’s), and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISI’s).
You may apply for the TODOS MSI Scholarship at any time during the admission process but you must apply before the scholarship deadline, even if you have not yet received a decision on your application for admission.
For Fall 2021 ONLY, any student from a MSI will receive an automatic $2000 grant towards our SIS, SIS + Internship, or SIS + UPF Semester Programs. Check out the MSI Grant section below for more info!
