The Academic & Cultural Sharing Scholarship offers international undergraduate students the ability to pay at 50% of the non-resident tuition rate, currently a savings of about $7,000 per year. This scholarship is available to all undergraduate international students who qualify for admission at North Dakota State University and hold F-1 student status.
Given the nature of the scholarship, recipients are expected to share their cultures with U.S. students, faculty, staff and members of the community in activities that are both academically and culturally beneficial. This will enable people to increase their knowledge of the cultures and countries where the scholarship recipients come from and gain a better sense of the global society.
