Scholarships
The Meyerhoff Center for Jewish Studies has several scholarship
funds for Jewish Studies students at the University of Maryland
who wish to study abroad. Most of these funds are earmarked
for students who spend a semester or a year at an Israeli
university. Students apply in March for scholarships for
the following academic year, and they receive notification
in April. Students applying in the fall for study abroad
the next spring can still apply for scholarships in the
fall. To apply, students fill out an application, provide
a university transcript, and write a write a brief essay on how the program for which they are applying will benefit their college education.
Priority is given to Jewish Studies majors, but other students
are eligible as well.
The Spring 2008 Application is available here. For further information, contact the Center's
Coordinator in room 0142 Holzapfel Hall, 301.405.4975 or email
us.
Graduate Students in Jewish Studies may also apply for scholarship money in support of their academic program. The money is not for use at UMCP itself, but for research, language training, or other programs in Israel or elsewhere.
