Alkanadi:People who get a basketball scholarship don't study basketball. They study other subjects..
but please tell us if you find one in China.

For now, I would say that if, in the subject in which you majored at university, you did not do well enough to win a scholarship to pursue post-graduate study
I have a gpa of 3.59 which is almost straight A's. I want to get a master's in information security or something like that.

Alkanadi:I don't want to study Esperanto in University, so please don't tell me about the impossibilities of getting a degree in the Epseranto language.

Universities have Basketball scholarships because it makes the university look better.

Is there such thing as an Esperanto scholarship (a scholarship for esperantists that wish to study a subject other than Esperanto) to make the university look better?

What about a fellowship or assistantship?
I think the closest one can get to "studying Esperanto" in university (other than specialist programs) would be as part of a Comparative Literature degree.

Does anyone here have cash to spend on an Eo scholarship?

Actually in China you can major in Esperanto in some universities. And then a scholarship is possible I suppose

Now you're talking. Judging from a table published by the Fulbright Commission on wiki, it looks as though you have what in the UK we'd call a "good" degree, an Upper Second. That should be good enough to win admission to a strong Master's programme in the UK. One such is at UCL.

As for funding, you might qualify for a scholarship. No doubt they are competitive, but there's no harm in trying.

Miland:
However I imagine that you are a U.S. citizen, and therefore it may be easier for you to get an American scholarship.
I believe Alkanadi is Canadian.

Alkanadi:
se:You can try Chinese universities, they have tons of money for foreigners to do the course especially one is the white skin and from USA.
Thanks. I will give them a try. Any university specifically?
Well, I read your reply post that you like to do a masters in IT, unless you can prove that Esperanto is the best IT language and you can get the scholarship. Zaozhuang university houses the largest Esperanto Museum in China, They do have courses for foreign languages before entering the Chinese language courses.

I think the second research on the Esperanto is the best business language would land you a place and teaching Esperanto too in China. But how do they judge your Esperanto level ?

The EU Esperanto certificate, most esperantists in China know about it.

Make it happen or wait for it to happen is your personal choice.

As I have mentioned in my own threat that forming a online university in full Esperanto to conduct manangement courses would get the Chinese investors to land you a job and also a place in university.

There is no free lunches in the world. It depends on how you propose to them.

There is also a James Fonseca Scholarship for the study of Esperanto or Spanish. To qualify the
applicant must study Esperanto or Spanish ($400)

Not much, but something.

Dankon, I've corrected my earlier message.

That is cool. It is better than nothing.

I think it would help Esperanto a lot if Esperantists could get scholarships. Lots of people learned Esperanto just to travel for free in Europe. Imagine how many young people would try to learn Esperanto just to get a scholarship/assistantship.
