About this opportunity

The OAS Academic Scholarship Program provides funding for citizens and permanent residents of OAS Member States to pursue graduate studies or graduate research at universities in the Americas.

Scholarships are awarded for a minimum of one academic year and a maximum of two academic years. Recipients must return to their sponsoring country for at least 24 months after completing their studies. The program excludes studies in medical sciences and language learning.
