FOR ADVANCED HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
The STARTALK scholarships are competitive scholarships for talented high school students interested in studying Arabic or Chinese in summer 2008 through Beloit College’s Center for Language Studies (CLS), a nationally recognized intensive language program.
By allowing you to accelerate your study of these critical languages, the STARTALK scholarship in combination with a CLS Grant (a $6,120 value) will help you achieve higher levels of proficiency more quickly and, as a result, provide you with the chance to pursue more meaningful study, in the areas of Asian or Middle East Studies. Our residential program features superb instructors, 26 hours per week of classroom study, an integrated approach to language and culture, and a variety of cultural activities.
Qualified students may apply by submitting the online application, an official transcript, and two letters of recommendation. A minimum grade point average of 3.0 is required. The deadline for applications is March 30, 2008, with announcements being made by April 15, 2008.
