The Boren Awards for international study offer Scholarships for undergraduate students and Fellowships for graduate students. Both the Boren scholarship and fellowship focus on countries, languages, and fields of study that are crucial to U.S. national security and are underrepresented in study abroad. Countries within Africa, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, and the Middle East are funded through the Boren Awards. Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and the countries of Western Europe are not included.
The USC deadline to apply for the Boren Scholarship is Friday, December 17, 2010. The instruction sheet is available here.
The Boren Fellowship does not have a campus deadline. However our office can assist students with the application. The national deadline is February 1, 2011.
