Description:

Come hear Jeff Cary, a staffer who works for the Boren Scholarship, discuss this award. In addition Stephen Hill from the NU Office of Fellowships will discuss the NU application process

The Boren Scholarship funds students pursuing language-intensive study abroad in countries out of the mainstream. At its core, Boren is a language program, thus competitive applicants will be serious students of a language not commonly taught in the United States. In addition, Boren funding comes from the Department of Defense, thus they prize government service. All applicants must be thoughtful about how their career contributes to national security. Finally, Boren rewards long-duration study abroad. The overwhelming majority of recipients will stay abroad for six months or more.
