World Trade Week Scholarship for College Students

Scholarship Overview

This scholarship is for students enrolled in a full-time academic program relating to international trade. If an applicant's major does not have an international dimension, international trade course work will suffice. To apply for this scholarship, applicants must have completed or be in the process of completing at least a quarter or semester internship with an international business, organization, or association of the Los Angeles international trade community. Applicants must submit a one-page internship report; the report should describe what the candidate did as part of the internship and include what the candidate learned and how her or she has benefited from the internship. A letter of recommendation is required from the faculty member who supervised the student's internship or the student's supervisor at the internship site. Students must also be willing to become a future international trade mentor to other students once they have become an international business professional.
