The Scholarship Fund endowed by the Polish History Museum is charged with supporting academic research on the history of Poland as well as activities propagating Polish history abroad. The scholarship is addressed to foreigners who study, or wish to study Polish history.
Scholarships are awarded to the winners of a competition for the best project, either educational, research or promotional in nature. A jury comprised of eminent Polish historians will select the winners of the competition. The Museum may also support the publication of works that result from materials gathered during the scholarship.
There is no limit to the number of times one may apply for the scholarship.
My advice? YOU CAN GO TO COLLEGE BECAUSE THERE ARE SCHOLARSHIPS OUT THERE! The prviate colleges are rolling in dough, and they literally threw money at my son, a good but not Harvard-quality student, to attend their school. These are not even scholarships he applied for, just checked the box and applied in time to be considered. The midwest and south in particular were very generous. And if you don’t get what you need, don’t give up! We met with financial counselors at the schools, and in some cases, they were able to add even more dollars. We have paid $500 this year out of pocket for a $60,000 a year education (plus books).
