The scholarship covers <strong>tuition, housing and living expenses for students pursuing associate&#8217;s, bachelor\u2019s, or master\u2019s degrees<\/strong>, as well as advising services, community support and practical resources they may need along their journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IIE offices in Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa and regional partner organizations nominate a slate of candidates through an annual selection process. These strong partner organizations are run by and serve refugees and displaced persons around the world and are most proximate to these populations and understand the needs, challenges, and what it
