Hi, readers!

Have you ever dreamed of going to school in another country?

I ran across an article about studying in England today on the Princeton University site. They are current and former Princeton students. However, this scholarship is available to students from all over. It is available for two years at any British University, for any field of study.

I have to say, this appeals to me so much. What a great opportunity! Studying in England would be a dream come true for me, and would also have been earlier in my life.

There is a long history to this scholarship. As the Princeton site explains,  the Marshall Scholarship was set up "in 1953 as a British gesture to the United States for the assistance received after World War II under the Marshall Plan."

Grants and links for Kentucky Education students

Tweet

Grants for Kentucky Education students - this posting at EHow.com looked interesting to me today. I have an initial Certification in English and Allied Arts in Teaching and am looking into going to get my Master's.

Here are some sites to help:

Grants for Kentucky Graduate Students - this article tells about Fulbright scholarships, a Master's grant offered through the American Inter-Continental University (for 10-20% of costs), and a Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement grant, which "Provides funds generally not available through a university."

Environmental Education grants in Kentucky

And this looks interesting! GrantsAlert helps people from all over find grants for education and for "organizations, schools, districts, consortia and state education agencies." This definitely looks to be worth a look.


All for now,
