Cetana Dickason-Young Family Scholarship Program 2027

The Cetana Educational Foundation seeks applicants for a scholarship that will support, given excellent academic progress, up to two years of study abroad toward a master’s degree that will prepare the grantee for a successful teaching career in Myanmar (or with Myanmar communities).

Cetana Educational Foundation is particularly interested in candidates who wish to pursue further study in English as a Second Language (Second Language Acquisition). The scholarship provides up to $13,500 annually towards tuition, fees, books, and living expenses incurred during study at a university in Thailand. Applicants should be Myanmar citizens, hold the B.A. or B.S. degree, and have advanced English language skills.
