The federal government's new "E-Scholar"
initiative contains hundreds of Federal government-funded
education scholarships, fellowships, grants, internships
and cooperative programs.
"Internationalize" your high school; make new friends;
improve your Italian; and earn scholarships for study
and travel to Italy.
OSIA is partnering with the American Institute for Foreign
Study's Academic Year in America (AYA), an international
exchange program, to place Italian high school students
with Italian American families for an academic semester
or year. AYA is dedicated to creating world citizens through
cross-cultural exchange. This is a great way to experience
the Italian culture in the US while becoming eligible
for scholarships to study in Italy.
