Sponsored Student Services

Program Overview: Missouri S&T is proud to work with and welcomes internationally sponsored students from around the world. The Office of International Student and Scholar Services serves as the direct liaison between sponsoring agencies, the Missouri S&T Campus, and the Rolla Community. Missouri S&T offers an excellent education in a location that is safe, welcoming, and supportive of your student's educational goals at a cost that ranks as one of the best investments among public universities in the U.S. The Sponsored Student Services office provides advising services in addition to cultural programming and other resources to students and sponsors.

Our Mission: Sponsored Student Services supports sponsored students from the point of admission to post-graduation. Our goal is to provide a welcoming, supportive, and educational program for students sponsored by third-party organizations or foreign governments.

What is a Sponsored Student?

Sponsored students receive financial support from an outside organization, such as a corporation, nonprofit organization, or foreign government. Students receiving funds from family members, friends, or through education loans are not considered to be Sponsored. Students receiving financial support through academic departments are also not considered sponsored students. These sponsoring agencies are the primary source of funding for the student’s educational expenses. A third-party billing agreement is established between Missouri S&T and the sponsoring agency. Sponsors provide their students with a financial guarantee letter that specifies the educational costs that are covered by their scholarship.
