3 Students Earn Gilman Scholarships To Study Abroad

Three UK students were awarded Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarships to support their education abroad goals.

The Gilman Scholarship supports students who have been traditionally under-represented in study abroad, including but not limited to, students with high financial need, community college students, students in under-represented fields such as the sciences and engineering, students with diverse ethnic backgrounds and students with disabilities. Award recipients are chosen by a competitive selection process and must use the award — ranging from $100 to $5,000 — to defray the cost of tuition, room and board, books, local transportation, insurance and international airfare.

The recipients are:

• English and history junior Bridan Braun
• Marketing and economics junior Odalys Garcia
• Clinical leadership management senior Emmanuel Dhemby Moussabou.
