Iowa State University Scholarships for International Students 2027

Students considering Iowa State University can explore scholarships that range from fully funded support to partial awards. This shortlist highlights higher coverage options first.

For institution funded support at Iowa State University, these scholarships are frequently highlighted when prioritizing higher coverage. With International Merit Scholarship, students may receive partially funded support, and coverage frequently includes funding for up to 8 semesters of undergraduate classes or until graduation and whichever one comes first and funding of $5,000 to $10,000 every year for achievement and $2,000 to $4,000 annually for distinction.

Outside the university’s own funding routes, Iowa State University students may be eligible for external programs that can offer substantial support. Here are a few to consider. A strong option is Fulbright Foreign Student Program which is fully funded and often covers roundtrip transportation from the country of origin to the US, monthly living stipend, and tuition fees. AAUW’s International Fellowship is partially funded, and coverage often includes $20,000 for Master's and first professional degree recipients, $25,000 for doctoral students, and $50,000 for postdoctoral students.

This is only a shortlist. Additional scholarships and funding options appear further down on this page.
