Upcoming Boren study abroad scholarship info session: Thursday, December 1st 2-3 p.m.

The program is geared towards students studying intensive foreign languages in non-traditional locations (semester/year), but students in STEM fields can also apply for a special summer language study scholarship. Students have to apply well in advance for this scholarship—the info session is geared towards students who would be studying abroad in summer 2012 through academic year 2012-13. I serve as the campus representative for the scholarship (for undergrads) and am happy to answer any questions on the scholarship so please feel free to e-mail me or have your students contact me. The campus deadline for the scholarship is January 9th.
