Thanks to this grant I will be able to afford airfare and travel insurance for my semester in Scotland this spring. I have never had the opportunity to leave the US; I can count on one hand the number of states I have been in, and I desperately wish to go experience more of the world. I hope to gain a deeper understanding of myself and my place in the world as well as a broader perspective on global issues—a new angle from which to look at things, if you will. Both of these things are, I think, vital to higher education, and this experience will help me to develop them in a way I could not at home. I am deeply appreciative of the student grant program—thank you
Congratulations, Sarah! Best of luck with your semester in Scotland!

JUNE 2012 RECIPIENT
I’m starting off my MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience at Amsterdam University (Netherlands) in September. I hope to succeed in this program and to continue my training in upcoming fields at a PhD level. Cognitive science is a young and developing field and will present, in the near future, exciting and important discoveries.
For a young psychologist from Santiago, Chile being able to study abroad in a cutting edge field is an opportunity of a lifetime and any financial support is highly appreciated.
For me, Student Grants represents the first step on the path to academic and scientific development. The competition for scholarships has become increasingly difficult each year with more new and promising students that are branching out into different fields and disciplines; Student Grants, unlike many other scholarships, has maintained support for different students even in a difficult world economic climate.
Thank you Student Grants.
