If you plan to study abroad for the 2014-2015 school year, why not offset some of your costs with a scholarship? The Study Abroad Competitive Scholarship is funded by the $4 International Education Fee that all Texas Tech students pay every semester. The scholarship is competitive and money is awarded to domestic students who will study abroad on Texas Tech approved programs.
