The NC Global Leadership Scholarship is modeled after the U.S. Department of State’s Benjamin Gilman International Scholarship which enables American students of limited financial means to gain proficiency in diverse languages and cultures, skills that are critically important to their academic and career development.

It is awarded to a Guilford County university student for study abroad. Finalists are nominated by area colleges and universities. A panel of experienced NC Global Leadership “citizen diplomats” makes the selection each year.
