Abstract
This study utilizes qualitative research methods to explore the human capital benefits of one government-sponsored international scholarship program - Kazakhstan's Bolashak Scholars Program - and how program characteristics and other forces promote and limit these benefits. The findings raise a number of questions for policymakers, administrators, and researchers about how a government-sponsored international scholarship program should be structured so as to maximize human capital development for individuals and the sponsoring nation.
