Oslo Summer 2025 GRSP Scholarship Opens for Georgia College Students

by Katheryne Fields, GRSP Executive Director

Norwegian Rotarians will partner with Georgia Rotary Student Program to sponsor two college students from Georgia to attend Oslo International Summer School. Dates will be June 28-July 15, 2025. Application is now open and closes Jan. 15, 2025. Applicants must have completed their first year of college by Spring 2025 and have the recommendation of Georgia Rotarian.

For questions regarding requirements or obtaining the Rotarian endorsement, please email grsp@grsp.org for assistance. 

Please reference the attached Oslo flyer for more information, dates for the summer session and the January 15, 2025 application deadline. Visit GRSP website: www.grsp.org to apply.

While GRSP spends the year hosting international college students, we are thankful for this opportunity allows college students from Georgia to spend the summer attending school and exchanging cultural customs in Norway. Oslo International Summer School includes students from all over the world in a diverse cultural program in the beautiful city of Oslo, Norway with four weeks of academic achievement and international goodwill. Students must have a valid passport. Applications will be reviewed and all applicants will be notified by the end of January 2025. 

The opportunity is open to undergraduate college students, who are Georgia residents, who have completed their first year of college by the end of Spring Semester 2025. Students must be between the ages of 20 to 24, single, in good health and academic standing plus willing to serve as an ambassador for Georgia Rotarians. Scholarship includes air fares from Atlanta to Oslo and return to Atlanta. Scholarship also includes undergraduate coursework, administered by the University of Oslo, room, board and administrative fees for the International Summer School at the University of Oslo. Scholarship recipients must pay their travel expense to-and-from Atlanta airport and to-and-from the Oslo airport, plus provide their own personal spending money. English is the language of instruction. The 78-year program successfully allows students to engage with and learn from students from other countries, building cross-cultural understanding and confidence. Oslo, Norway is a small country in Northern Europe with beautiful and breathtaking scenery, a fascinating history and culture.
