High School Abroad

Financing The Quest

CHI annually offers small scholarships to high school students already accepted to be a CHI exchange student for a school year program. The scholarships are funded by donations received from Host Families who have hosted a foreign student through our Inbound Program or from contributions from outside sources. Since the funds come primarily from Host Families one scholarship of $500 is set aside for a Host Family student to receive. That and the remaining scholarships available will be given on the basis of an essay written by the student. Only one scholarship is awarded per person.
