The non-profit organization Tella Academy has launched a new initiative to provide scholarships and educational opportunities. The project aims to increase the availability of international experience to students, who often lack economic resources or access to structured programs.
Every year, thousands of young foreign students dream of studying abroad, but many of them face financial constraints or no economic opportunities at all to study at international universities and schools. For students who enroll in educational courses in 2026, Tella Academy will offer 2 types of scholarships:
- Summer Scholarship: Designed for students from 16 to 18 years old: includes short-term international experience, return flight, 4 weeks of accommodation, 2 weeks of internship and full accommodation.
- Bridge-Year Scholarship: designed for school graduates before starting higher education or employment, includes refundable tickets, 12 weeks of accommodation, an English language program for 4 weeks, an internship for 8 weeks.
In addition to scholarship programs, Tella Academy plans to act as an educational center, offering courses and activities on intercultural communication, sustainable development and the ethical application of new technologies.
Brief information: Tella Academy is based in Florence and was opened by international education entrepreneur Enrico Zoppi. The organization aims to overcome inequalities in access to overseas education through targeted scholarships and intercultural learning.
