Approximately 90 scholarships are awarded each year. The academic program must include formal study of a modern language other than English and the study of an area and culture. Undergraduate applications are coordinated through the Center for Study Abroad and Interdepartmental Programs, Lattimore 206. Applications are due December 1. Any field is eligible, but candidates must possess some proficiency in the language of the country in which they wish to study.
Awards cover tuition, books, travel, room, and board.
Application deadlines are set by the individual districts, but in general, you must apply more than a year in advance of the date you wish to commence your studies. The application, available online, is due in late March. The University can nominate up to six students. Selection is based upon academic achievement and awards, activities, work experience, and an essay discussing the impact of Congressman Udall s public policy work. The campus application deadline for the University nominees selection process is in late November.
