Funding for international graduate students is available but is primarily on a case-by-case basis that considers country of origin, program, field of study, program level etc. Funding for international graduate students may require extra time and patience to locate.

GRAPES-- Although based at UCLA it is a good place to search for opportunities. The GRAPES database catalogs extramural funding opportunities of interest to prospective and current graduate students, students working on a master's thesis or doctoral dissertation, and postdoctoral scholars. It contains information on over 625 private and publicly funded awards, fellowships, and internships. Advanced search options allow users to refine their search by field, academic level, award type, award amount, and other criteria. GRAPES is maintained by the UCLA Fellowships and Financial Services Office

UCB Scholarship Connection- Scholarship Connection is UC Berkeley's clearinghouse for information on scholarships that are funded by sources outside the University. The Scholarship Connection website is run by the Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarships (OURS). We receive hundreds of scholarship notices each year. Competition for these awards may be local, national, or international in scope, and scholarship deadlines and requirements vary.
