University of Tennessee Global Ambassador Scholarship
Offered by University of Tennessee, Knoxville
About this scholarship
The University of Tennessee Global Ambassador Scholarship is an undergraduate scholarship for international first-year students at UT Knoxville. One Stop Student Services lists the scholarship for first-year international students, with an annual award range of $10,000 to $15,000 and a May 1 application deadline. The same official scholarship filter states that international students with a minimum 3.0 GPA who apply for admission during their final year of high school are automatically considered for this scholarship and may become part of the UT Global Ambassador program. The award is partial funding because it reduces tuition and educational cost but does not cover full tuition, fees, housing, meals, health insurance, books, travel, or personal expenses. UT's international admissions FAQ confirms that international applicants are considered for the same scholarship programs as out-of-state applicants and that UT does not provide fully funded scholarships for international students. Applicants must meet international first-year admission requirements, provide required official transcripts, and demonstrate English proficiency unless they qualify for an exemption.
