BURSE IN STRAINATATE: GEORGIA ROTARY STUDENT PROGRAM
calendar_month 30 Aug 2007, 00:00
What is the Georgia Rotary Student Program? Since 1946, Rotarians in Georgia, USA, have promoted world peacethrough understanding by offering scholarships to international students for one year of study in Georgia colleges and universities.
Georgia Rotary Clubs sponsor students recommended by a Rotary Club in their home country. The students become adopted members of a Georgia `host family`, but live on-campus at the school they attend.
This is a scholarship program, not an exchange! Each year, about 80 students from all over the world make friends in the United Statesand other nations and learn about differing cultures and life styles. Georgia Rotarians believe `Peace is Possible` and through GRSP promote international goodwill through the bonds of friendship and understanding.
