Augie Abroad Grant (formerly the Passport Grant)

The Augie Abroad Grant (formerly the Passport Grant) is a need-based scholarship of up to $1,000 awarded to qualifying Augustana students annually to support their participation in an approved Augustana study away program.

The Augie Abroad Grant application cycle is February/March to April every year for the upcoming academic year. The next application cycle will end April 2, 2026, for students participating in a study abroad program for the 2026-2027 academic year. 

Eligibility

  • Students must be currently enrolled at Augustana College.
  • Students must participate in an approved Augustana study away program.
  • Students must have paid the required deposit for an approved study away program.

Award information

  • While this is primarily a need-based grant, consideration of the quality of the application and the application essay will factor into the grant award process. Additionally, preference will be given to first-time study abroad participants.
  • It is highly advised that students complete their FAFSA before the Augie Abroad Grant application deadline.
  • Grant awards are applied directly to the cost of the Augustana study away program, acting as a discount on the program expense.
  • Grants are awarded to pay for the study away program costs of the student’s first choice. Students who are awarded a grant and then opt for a different study away program or defer that program from the one indicated on the application may be reevaluated for grant eligibility.
  • Students who are awarded a grant and opt not to enroll in the study away program will not receive the grant funds.
  • Students may combine this grant with Augie Choice and other Augustana grants.
  • The total amount of scholarship funds that a student receives cannot exceed the cost of the program.
  • Grant winners will be notified by the IOP office when the selection process is complete.
  • Funds will be disbursed in accordance with the Financial Aid policy.

Other restrictions may apply. Contact the Office of International and Off-Campus Programs (IOP) at internationalprograms@augustana.edu with questions.
