WiExperiential Learning Scholarships

The Office of Experiential Learning offers scholarships to support students' experiential learning activities. Awards are in amounts of up to $2,500.

Students must be eligible and activities must be on the approved list of any college to be considered for funding. For more information, contact us at ugael@uga.edu.

**Please note that all recommendation letters must be submitted by the application deadline.  It is the applicant’s responsibility to communicate deadlines to the recommender(s).  While only one recommendation letter is required, applicants are welcome and encouraged to seek multiple recommendations. 


Applications are closed

 

*Please note: The scholarship application has the UGA Study Away logo, but ALL approved EL activities and areas are eligible!

Upcoming Deadlines   

For activities occurring in  Spring/Maymester/Summer 2024 - mid-October

  • Applications will open in August
  • Select "Fall, 2023" application (The term refers to our scholarship cycle, not the semester of your EL activity!)

For activities occurring in Maymester/Summer/Fall 2024 - mid-February 

  • Applications will open in December after grades are posted
  • Select "Spring, 2024" application

Yes, you are reading that right! We accept applications for Maymester and Summer activities during both Fall and Spring application cycles. We understand that students might not know what their summer plans are by our October deadline, so we've built this flexibility into our scholarship awarding process.

The Office of Experiential Learning receives generous support from the Knox-Hines Experiential Learning Initiative, the Crawford Experience Learning Endowment, the Georgia Athletic Association Scholarship for Experiential Learning, and the Gregory and Barbara Rizzo Experiential Learning Scholarship Fund.
