Scholarship programs
Your students can discover Peru for free as EF Global Citizens!
EF awards annual scholarships to students who exemplify the qualities of a Global Citizen. Your students have a chance to earn our 2011 EF Global Citizen Scholarship and travel for free on an educational tour to Peru! Winners will be high school students who are devoted to promoting global awareness. Recipients will join peers from across the country on a June 2011 journey to explore social and life sciences in Peru. Please let your students know about this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Students can apply by:
1. Creating a 1-3 minute digital media project that answers the following prompt:
- What is a Global Citizen? Describe a social or ecological issue facing our world today. How should a Global Citizen respond to this issue?
- How would experiencing an educational tour to Peru, a country rich in not only archeological and anthropological lessons but also ecological biodiversity, help you to be a responsible Global Citizen?
Students interested in writing an essay or who don’t use Facebook can email
education.department@ef.com to learn about an alternative submission process.
