Scholarships in Monaco

Academic Center for International Business Along the French Riviera

The Principality of Monaco is located on small part of coastline between Italy and France. Sometimes referred to as the French Riviera, it is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Because of its attractiveness many students choose to travel here on study abroad programs. Unfortunately because of its luxurious culture, museums, monuments, and all around scenery, the government doesn’t sponsor any study abroad programs to there.

The International University of Monaco is focused on training the next generation of business students. It may not seem like the best location to study business, but its top of the line business sense and multitude of world leaders has made it a central location for understanding the top tier of the business world.

Those who want to engage in their study abroad programs but can’t afford it are encouraged to apply for the International Education and Exchange Study Abroad Stipend. To  be considered for this award you must have a minimum GPA of 3.0, demonstrate financial need, and be enrolled at the University of Miami.
