About the Scholarship

The Global Scholarship is the one Boise State award reserved for international students, paying $5,000 to $7,000 a year on grade average, and it stacks on top of the Ridgeline or Summit award.

Stacked, the university caps the combination at $17,000 a year. That is the realistic ceiling to plan around, and it says openly that it offers no fully funded scholarships.

One condition sets this apart from the others. The university states the Global Scholarship is subject to availability, and that where funding runs short, priority goes to applicants in the order their admission files were completed. Applying early is worth more here than the deadline suggests.

What It Covers

  • Fees

$5,000 a year at a grade average of 3.500 to 3.749, $6,000 from 3.750 to 3.999, and $7,000 at 4.000 and above. Four years for first-year entrants and two for transfers. These are fee waivers rather than cash. The university states they can only be applied to non-resident fees, and that recipients remain responsible for resident fees and any uncovered portion of the non-resident fees. Construction management, nursing, pre-nursing, radiological science, alternative-fee and fully online programmes are excluded, as are exchange, second-degree, non-degree and pathway students. Awards stack to a combined ceiling of $17,000 a year, and the university states it offers no fully funded scholarships.

Eligibility

A grade average of at least 3.500, as a first-year or transfer applicant. The university publishes no renewal grade threshold for this award.

Eligible Countries

The university states this award is open only to international students, unlike its Ridgeline and Summit awards which are available to all applicants.
