LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 23, 2014) — Today from 3 to 7 p.m., University of Kentucky Education Abroad (EA) will host its Scholarship Workshop in the Hub of William T. Young Library. Free pizza will be provided.

"Following the success of last week's Education Abroad Fair, we are excited to offer an informal workshop that focuses on funding opportunities available for education abroad," said Miko McFarland, assistant director of UK Education Abroad. "Students can drop by to get information about UK college and departmental, program-specific and external scholarships. EA staff will be available to review students' scholarship essays, provide guidance on applying for scholarships and share additional ideas for fundraising."

The UK Education Abroad scholarship application deadline for winter and spring programs is Oct. 1. 

"We encourage winter and spring education abroad students to attend, along with students who are thinking about a future education abroad program," said McFarland.
