National Security Education Program (NSEP) Information Meeting
A representative from the Institute of International Education (IIE) will be speaking with interested students, both undergraduate and graduate, about the David L. Boren Scholarships & Fellowships.
Boren Awards provide a unique funding opportunity for U.S. students to study world regions critical to U.S. interests (including Africa, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, and the Middle East). The countries of Western Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are excluded.
The Boren Scholarship provides opportunities for undergraduate students to study in countries that are generally underrepresented in study abroad.
The Boren Fellowship allows graduate students to add an important international and language component to their graduate studies.
Boren Scholars are awarded up to $20,000 for an academic year and Boren Fellows are awarded up to $30,000 for two academic years.
Additional information on preferred geographic regions, languages and fields of study and application procedures can be found at www.borenawards.org.
