Transylvania University has received a grant to help students get a passport so they can take advantage of a variety of study abroad opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The funding<\/a> is made possible through the Institute of International Education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twenty-five first-year Pioneers who are receiving Pell Grants for financial need will not only have their passport paid for, but they’ll also participate in a series of mentoring sessions on the application process and on international education in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It allows us to work with these students in a cohort,” said Rachel Wilson ’07, director of global and intercultural engagement. This extra guidance could be especially beneficial for 18-year-olds away from home for the first time. (Adding to the stress, processing times have been delayed because of post-pandemic travel demand.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wilson also sees it as a chance to promote study abroad to new students and help them decide what programs are best for them \u2014 or how to get additional funding for their travels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The idea is that the passport is a real but overcomeable barrier for students who have never had one, never left the country,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While a regular passport costs $165, making it more accessible might be the nudge that makes international education possible for some students. “It all feels more achievable,” Wilson added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through this American Passport Project, IIE aims to provide the document to 10,000 students. It\u2019s the initiative’s third year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA passport is the first thing that opens up their world to the possibility of study abroad,\u201d said Courtney Temple, the organization’s executive vice president and chief administrative officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to receiving the IIE funds, Transylvania was recently awarded<\/a> a U.S. Department of State grant helping expand international education opportunities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
