Is the Presidential Scholarship available to international students?

<p>I emailed the school a few days ago and still haven't received a reply :(</p>

<p>Also, are the Economics and Political Science departments at Howard relatively strong?</p>

<p>The resources at Howard for PolicSci students are strong, as I have heard, due to the location of the school and the school’s history. There are a lot of great speakers and internship opportunities because the school is in DC and a lot of doors open for good students because of the history of Howard and the alumni base. </p>

<p>As for the scholarships, I don’t know. Maybe call admissions and ask for the person that handles those scholarships. I know that they have a solid group of presidential scholars coming in this fall, but have no idea whether any are international.</p>

Ugh they have yet to reply to my email. Unfortunately calling the admissions office is too expensive to do right now as I live halfway across the world.</p>

<p>Somebody also told me that Howard is doing very poorly financially which means that cuts in scholarships will be directed at international students, if they happen. </p>
