Presidential Scholarships 2024 at Clark University

Clark University is delighted to welcome applicants for Presidential Scholarships for international students who wish to further their educational path abroad for the 2024/2025 academic session. This scholarship scheme is open to undergraduate candidates.

This Scholarship is a funded opportunity offered to qualified international Undergraduate candidates. This program is sponsored and hosted by Clark University, USA. International students who may qualify for scholarships are still expected to demonstrate the ability to cover a significant percentage of the cost of their education. This includes students who wish to be considered for the Presidential Scholarship. Your eligibility for scholarships depends on your academic achievement (those indicated on your application for admission), not on your family need.

Clark University is a private research university in Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1887 with a large endowment from its namesake Jonas Gilman Clark, a prominent businessman, Clark was one of the first modern research universities in the United States. Originally an all-graduate institution, Clark’s first undergraduates entered in 1902 and women were first enrolled in 1942. The university now offers 46 majors, minors, and concentrations in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering and allows students to design specialized majors and engage in pre-professional programs. It is a member of the Higher Education Consortium of Central Massachusetts which enables students to cross-register to attend courses at other area institutions including Worcester Polytechnic Institute and the College of the Holy Cross. It is classified among “R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity”. It was a founding member of the Association of American Universities, but departed in 1999.
