District 7230 comprises New York City, the Bronx, Staten Island, Westchester County and Bermuda. [See Map]

There are two types of Rotary International scholarships for graduate studies abroad. The application for each one has to come through a Rotary Club located within the boundaries of District 7230, where the applicant resides or works.

Ambassadorial Scholarship

The most commonly known scholarship is the Ambassadorial Scholarship, which is for one  year of graduate study abroad. This is competitive within the district to the extent the district has qualified to make such a grant or grants.
