GOING TO THE SUN SCHOLARSHIP: http://goingtothesungrants.com/
Are you a Montanan curious about the rest of the world? For instance, did you know that…
- …India has a bill of rights for cows?
- …about 5,000 languages are currently spoken in the world; 800 of them are spoken in Papua New Guinea?
- …Uzbekistan and Liechtenstein are the only two double-landlocked countries?
- …passports were not widely required until the 1900s?
- …73% of the world’s beer is consumed in China?
- …the top ten tourist destinations account for half of all tourist arrivals worldwide? They are: France, Spain, Italy, the UK, Austria, Germany, China, Canada, Mexico, and the USA.
- …in Latin American countries, it’s TUESDAY the 13th that is unlucky, not Friday? In Romania, however, BOTH are unlucky.
At Going-to-the-Sun Travel Grants, we are dedicated to supporting young Montanans as they explore the world. If you are between the ages of 18 and 25 and any of the above intrigued you, a Going-to-the-Sun Travel Grant may be for you. An annual grant of up to $5,000 goes to an individual who presents the most compelling project or trip outline. Although a self-designed tour is the ultimate way to explore, the grant can also be used for organized endeavors such as language courses, volunteer trips, or research excursions.

FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID
Carroll allows federal financial aid to be used on all approved reciprocal exchange programs and affiliate programs. Students who choose to participate in a non-approved program will not be allowed to transfer their federal aid. All students must be enrolled in and complete a minimum of 12 credits while studying abroad, especially if they are receiving federal financial aid. If you fail to complete at least 12 credits while abroad, you may have to return the federal aid you received from Carroll and you will be billed for these funds.
Summer aid is normally not available, but be sure to check with the financial aid office.
