Eckerd College
Eckerd College pays $4,000 a year for leadership that strengthens community connections, and adds a $2,000 grant toward one of its own study abroad programmes.
The college names this among the talent-based awards open to international students, so unlike most leadership awards in this directory it is explicitly reachable.
Applications close on 1 February, and it is for autumn entry only. Renewal terms are not published.
