The UCLA International Institute is pleased to announce the European Undergraduate Study Abroad Scholarship.  The Fund was established in 2017, and made possible by a generous gift from Mr. Jonathan Fragodt ’91. For Summer/Fall 2024, the fund will provide up to two $2,500 scholarships for UCLA students from any academic background to study abroad in Europe. Students attending a program in the UK should apply to the UK Undergraduate Study Abroad Scholarship.
