The University of Oregon is offering ICSP Scholarships to international students who demonstrate financial need and possess a strong academic track record, enabling them to pursue a Bachelor’s degree.
Both new and continuing international students have the opportunity to apply for the International Cultural Service Program (ICSP). Successful ICSP applicants will be granted a partial tuition waiver scholarship. The ICSP scholarship is renewable annually until the completion of a UO degree, contingent upon the student meeting the stipulated requirements of the ICSP program.
ICSP recipients commit to fulfilling 66-80 hours per year of cultural service, as mandated by the program. Cultural service activities encompass activities such as delivering speeches or demonstrations to schools or community groups that shed light on the heritage and culture of their respective countries. Additionally, participants may engage in international events held on campus as part of their cultural service commitment.
