Exchange Scholarship Program

The Global Ties Arizona Exchange Scholarship Program is designed to support students’ international education and promote our organizational values of citizen diplomacy and intercultural exchange.

Because we know our future depends on individuals that can lead effectively in an interconnected world, we challenge the next generation to develop leadership and cross-cultural communication skills, global acumen, and experience in diplomacy through study and education abroad.

Selected Spring 2024 Recipients will be notified by February 5th, 2024.

Global Ties Arizona offers two $1000 scholarships each semester to:

- One Arizona-based domestic student pursuing study abroad in Spring or Summer 2024;

- and one international student studying at an Arizona higher education institution in Spring 2024.

Spring 2024 Applications are now closed
