<p>I’m going from memory here, but is this really a recent policy change?</p>
<p>My daughter is a current sophomore with a JLB scholarship (merit scholarship with 4 years full tuition, contingent upon maintenance of a 3.2). IIRC, she mentioned going in that her scholarship was not applicable to overseas study. Wasn’t an issue in her case, as the schedule for the courses she needs for her major precluded her taking a semester somewhere else. I also recall that it’s only a 4 year deal, so it would have involved making sure the overseas session didn’t slow her down.</p>
<p>Now, I could be wrong, but I don’t think so. Maybe this is a change for other scholarships, but I do recall that a semester overseas was not going to be covered when she got the word on her scholarship in April '07.</p>
