About Our Office
Part of the Bechtel International Center, the Office of Global Scholarships (OGS) empowers students to pursue educational, experiential and research opportunities abroad.
We help undergraduates and graduate students, and recent alumni match their interests to global scholarships opportunities, and advise them through the application and interview process.
Our office also administers global scholarships, including the Rhodes, Marshall, Fulbright, and many more. View our recent scholarship winners.
We Support Two Types of Scholarships
1. Scholarships with a campus process that generally require a Stanford endorsement or nomination of some kind.
2. Scholarships that do not require a campus process or Stanford endorsement. We maintain a growing list of such overseas awards and provide advice and support for applicants.
