About this program
The Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs funds the Benjamin Gilman International Scholarship (CFDA 19.425) to provide financial assistance to U.S. citizen undergraduates pursuing study abroad, with the most recent grant award dated April 1, 2009.
Activity has not occurred since 2009. The portfolio shows two grant awards spanning 2008 and 2009, one per year, with no subsequent disbursements recorded. No recent grant opportunities are currently posted.
The program funds study-abroad scholarships for undergraduate U.S. citizens. All recorded funding has been structured as Cooperative Agreements. The Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs is the sole funding agency, obligating $14 million in federal dollars across the two awards; combined federal and non-federal obligations total $19.8 million, indicating a $5.8 million non-federal cost-share contribution.
Representative awards include Cooperative Agreement SECAAS09CA061, awarded April 1, 2009, for $14.01 million, with completion scheduled for September 30, 2010, and Cooperative Agreement SECAAS08CA062, awarded April 14, 2008, for $5.81 million, with completion scheduled for September 30, 2009. Both agreements carried the Benjamin Gilman International Scholarship Program designation, and the awards appear to have funded the scholarship program's operational administration rather than direct student awards.
The program shows no grant activity in the past 17 years. The gap between the most recent award date and current date, combined with the absence of posted opportunities, indicates this funding line is inactive or closed to new applicants. Organizations should verify current eligibility and program status directly with the Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs before investing effort in an application.
