About AGBU Scholarship Program
For almost a century, the AGBU SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM has championed the higher education of tens of thousands of promising young Armenian university students enrolled at some of the world’s top-ranked universities.
Annually, we award over $1 million USD to young adults pursuing their undergraduate and graduate degrees in nearly 40 countries across 6 continents. With that financial assistance, students with great potential but limited resources are able to engage in specialized fields of education, such as law, medicine, the performing arts and religious studies, and later establish successful careers.
The AGBU SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM is made possible by the many benefactors and donors who have established endowments since the 1920’s, or have contributed over the years. Because of their generosity, we are able to provide students with the support they need to succeed at each stage of their education.
Today, through added focus on specialized fields of study, the AGBU SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM offers financial assistance to a broader range of Armenian students across the globe.
International Scholarship (Study in France)
AGBU offers scholarships to undergraduate and some graduate students of Armenian descent (excluding citizens of Armenia studying in Armenia), pursuing study at highly selective colleges and universities in France. Applicants must be enrolled in full-time degree programs with a GPA of 3.2 and above, as measured by the American grading system scale. Grants of up to €1,800 EUR are awarded annually, and are available for a maximum of three (3) years toward college/university education expenses.
Students who are pursuing study in the performing arts or religious studies at institutions in France are not eligible for this scholarship; these students should apply for an AGBU Performing Arts Fellowship (study in all countries except UK) or AGBU Religious Studies Fellowship, respectively.
Applicants from Armenia
Applicants who are citizens of Armenia qualify for AGBU Scholarships for study outside of Armenia. For the applicant's security, it is advised that a major portion of tuition and other expenses has already been secured through personal means, foundations, governmental and state grants, and/or the academic institution they are attending. We impose this rule to ensure that there is a good chance the student will actually be able to study abroad. Please note, scholarships are not available to citizens of Armenia for local study in Armenia.
