Gabriel Gonzalez, Nicole Posadas: Gilman International Scholarships

Penn undergraduate students Gabriel Gonzalez and Nicole Posadas have earned Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarships to study or intern abroad during the spring of 2019. They were selected among 844 American undergraduate students from 335 colleges and universities across the United States. 

Mr. Gonzalez, a junior marketing major in the Wharton School, will be spending the semester studying abroad at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.

Ms. Posadas, a junior earth science major in the School of Arts & Sciences, will be spending the semester studying at the National University of Singapore (NUS). 

The Congressionally funded Gilman Program broadens the US student population studying and interning abroad by providing scholarships to outstanding undergraduate Pell Grant recipients who, due to financial constraints, might not otherwise study abroad.  Since the program’s establishment in 2001, over 1,300 US institutions have sent more than 28,000 Gilman scholars who represent the rich diversity of the United States to 145 countries around the globe.
