Eastern Europe Peoples Foundation
Scholarship Information
Established in 2000, the Eastern Europe Peoples Foundation provides financial grants for partial tuition, books, and room & board to undergraduate students who are pursuing higher education or advanced training through an accredited college, university, vocation, or technical school. Partial scholarships are awarded to students meeting the eligibility requirements of the Foundation. A Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing applications and determining grant recipients on an annual basis. Scholarships are renewable based upon eligibility, and the amount of the grant may vary from year to year based upon the amount of funds available and the number of grants awarded.
Application Requirements
First, before applying, please check "Financial Information" to see if funds are available for your country.
Second, applications for the current academic year will be accepted only during the period of February through May 31.
Third, to be considered, an applicant must be a citizen of an Eastern European country and rank within the top Ten Percent (10%) of his/her class.
