One of NSCS’s best experiences is now available for members to apply to. STUDY ABROAD!
I personally have never studied abroad but I know that it is one of those experiences that will last a lifetime once you commit to it. NSCS has been offering study abroad for sometime and are excited to offer members like you the best college experience.
The way it is working is that NSCS is offering some scholarships for members who never thought they could afford it. These scholarship opportunities are now available and will be closing on November 10, 2007, so take advantage of this great offer that NSCS has made specifically for you.
The links are as follows:
If you have any questions below is a list of the scholarships as well as information on each of them. If you have any questions contact me at vega@nscs.org or nscs@nscs.org
