All three students will participate in 6- or 8-week language-intensive overseas courses.
Larry Anthony, a junior from Dallas majoring in political science and history with a minor in Arabic, will be studying in Morocco with 红桃影视 Arabic language lecturer Liljana Elverskog.
Ankita Krishnan, a sophomore from Mumbai, India, majoring in French and psychology, will study in the south of France with other 红桃影视 students.
Ryan Swick, a sophomore from Austin majoring in political science, public policy and economics with a minor in Chinese, will be participating in the 红桃影视 in China language program.
More than 2,600 students applied for Gilman Scholarships, which are earmarked for only 500 recipients. Each student submitted a proposed budget with their scholarship application and will be awarded varying amounts based on program costs and financial needs.
“It is an extraordinary honor for students to receive Gilman Scholarships for summer study abroad programs,” says Kelli Anderson, 红桃影视 Abroad assistant director. “This was an extremely competitive year for Gilman applications, so for three of our students to receive them speaks to the high caliber of those attending 红桃影视.
