The International Virtual Exchange Consortium Board is pleased to offer a limited number of scholarships to help offset the cost of attending IVEC 2025.  Scholarships advance equity and inclusion at the conference by supporting the participation of delegates who would otherwise be unable to attend.  Preference is given to: first-time participants in IVEC; attendees from developing countries or underrepresented higher education institutions; early career researchers; those who have a demonstrated commitment to advancing virtual exchange at their institution or through their careers; those who are selected to present at the conference.

Full scholarships for in-person attendees will cover registration plus 3 nights of hotel accommodation in a hotel near the conference venue (chosen by the planning committee).  Additional travel expenses such as airfare, travel visa (if applicable), meals not provided at the conference, etc. are not included.  Scholarships for virtual attendees will cover registration only.  Partial scholarships may also be offered.

All scholarship recipients are expected to actively participate in all days of the conference, 15-17 October, 2025.

For priority consideration for a scholarship, complete the form below by Monday, June 30, 2025. All scholarship requests will be reviewed by the IVEC conference planning committee, which will make determinations based on the selection criteria.

Recipients will be notified by July 23, 2025 and expected to confirm their participation by August 17, 2025. They will also be required to confirm their travel details by September 15, 2025.  Please make sure to have the necessary institutional support in place to meet this timeline.
