This program is one-of-a-kind.

We have been bringing nations together since 1946. The program began with only 4 scholars, and now we are proud to say that we have more than 3,800 alumni from all over the world.

The program’s purpose is to broaden the understanding of world peace through people and that is exactly what we’ve done.

🌍💙 What does peace look like?
It looks like students from different countries sharing a meal, exploring a new community, laughing together, and becoming lifelong friends. Every year, GRSP scholars remind us that peace is built through understanding. For 80 years, the Georgia Rotary Student Program has helped create understanding between people, cultures, and nations through the simple but powerful act of friendship. Through partnerships with Rotary clubs across Georgia and around the world, GRSP creates opportunities for cultural exchange, meaningful connections, and friendships that transcend borders. Today, on the International Day of Peace, we celebrate the students, host families, Rotarians, coordinators, and alumni who continue to make that mission possible. Because when we bring nations together, we bring the world a little closer together, too. 🌎✨

Linnea Haggard: Spring Break in New York

The year of 05/06, I got the great opportunity to study at the Brenau University in Georgia by a most privileged scholarship founded by Rotary in Georgia, USA. I have gotten to know the customs and the way of living in the southern part of the U.S. And I have met some...

I would like to share a deeply enriching story of mine with you. It all has to do with the most valuable friendship I made earlier this year, with Mehmet Cem Ulgen. The significance of this friendship is that Cem is from Turkey and I am from Cyprus. It is to all known...

FEELINGS! A simple word yet so complicated when we try to express what it means to us personally. We all have feelings. Some of us express them openly; others, just keep them within their souls. My feelings are open and this is what I feel. To some, GRSP is a mere...

Being a part of the Georgia Rotary Student Program has been one of the most profound experiences of my life. This program has afforded me the opportunity to forge lasting friendships with people from diverse backgrounds and experiences. This, perhaps, is the greatest gift that one can hope to get for it allows us to see through differences across cultures and instead find similarities between one another. I feel that such fellowship across participants, both students and host families, is what made this program such an enriching experience for me.

Since 1946, Rotarians in Georgia, USA, have promoted world peace through understanding by offering ambassadorial scholarships to international students for one year cultural immersion and of study in Georgia colleges and universities.

Each year, students from all over the world make friends in the United States and other nations and learn about differing cultures and lifestyles. Georgia Rotarians believe “Peace is Possible” and through GRSP promote international goodwill through friendship and understanding.

The students become adopted members of a Georgia “host family,” living on-campus at the school they attend. This is an ambassadorial scholarship program, not an exchange!

Georgia Rotary Clubs sponsor students recommended by a Rotary Club in their home country.
