[beasiswa] [info] Ambassadorial Scholarship of Rotary Foundation

Ambassadorial ScholarshipsA**mbassadorial Scholarships, The Rotary
Foundation's oldest and best-known program, was founded in 1947. Since then,
nearly 38,000 men and women from about 100 nations have studied abroad under
its auspices. Today it is the world's largest privately funded international
scholarships program. Nearly 800 scholarships were awarded for study in
2005-06. Through grants totaling approximately US$500 million, recipients
from about 70 countries studied in more than 70 nations.

The purpose of the Ambassadorial Scholarships program is to further
international understanding and friendly relations among people of different
countries and geographical areas. The program sponsors several types of
scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students as well as for
qualified professionals pursuing vocational studies. While abroad, scholars
serve as goodwill ambassadors to the host country and give presentations
about their homelands to Rotary clubs and other groups. Upon returning home,
scholars share with Rotarians and others the experiences that led to a
greater understanding of their host country.

Generous contributions from Rotarians worldwide represent a continued faith
that today's Ambassadorial Scholars will be tomorrow's community and world
leaders.

your local club can provide specific information about application
deadlines. For 2009-10 awards, club deadlines may be as early as 1 March
2008 or as late as 15 August 2008. Remember that availability varies by
Rotary district. If your local district is not offering scholarships at this
time, try inquiring next year.

Use the Club Locator<http://www.rotary.org/EN/ABOUTUS/SITETOOLS/CLUBLOCATOR/Pages/ridefault.aspx>

Rotary club, try entering the names of nearby cities. You can also consult a
local telephone directory.

any suitable institution to ensure the widest possible geographical
distribution of scholars. Candidates must be flexible in their study
institution assignments.
- Scholars will not be assigned to a city, state, or province where
they have lived or studied for more than six months. As a result, these
scholarships are not appropriate for students seeking to continue their

institution, gaining admission, obtaining required visas, and making travel
arrangements. The scholarship may not be used in conjunction with a
