College Loan Consolidation: Freeman Awards for Study in Asia

The Freeman Awards for Study in Asia have been instrumental in assisting hundreds of students with funding for studies in the Philippines and other Asian countries. The funding is provided from philanthropic sources to make sure U.S. students have the opportunity to experience Asian cultures that in many cases have been beyond their reach. Applicants may apply for summer, semester or year programs. Preference is given to those who have never been abroad. Selections are made on the basis of both academic merit and financial need. Up to $7,000 is possible for a year program.
