Major Fellowships
Bridging Scholarships
The Bridging Project offers scholarships to U.S. undergraduate students participating in study-abroad programs in Japan. Programs must be at least three months in length up to an academic year and must earn credit that will transfer to their home campus in the US. Bridging Scholarship recipients receive stipends of $2,500 for a semester’s study program or $4,500 for an academic-year program. Undergraduate students majoring in any field of study are eligible to apply and Japanese language study is not a prerequisite.
