Middlebury College - Fellowships for Summer Language Study
Kathryn Davis Fellowships for Peace:
Investing in the Study of Critical Languages
Full Scholarships for Intensive Language Study at the Middlebury Summer Language Schools in: Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese, Portuguese, and Russian
Middlebury College is pleased to announce The Kathryn Davis Fellowships for Peace: Investing in the Study of Critical Languages. These 100 fellowships are made possible by a generous gift from Kathryn Davis to address today’s critical need for increased language proficiency in the United States.
For the fourth year in a row, 100 Davis Fellowships are offered to cover the full cost of summer language study from beginner to graduate levels in Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese, Portuguese, and Russian at the Middlebury College Language Schools. Fellowship grants cover the full comprehensive fee (tuition, room, and board) at the Middlebury summer Language Schools.
The Davis Fellowships are merit-based and intended for exceptionally qualified individuals with demonstrated interest in one or more of the following areas: international, global, or area studies; international politics and economics; peace and security studies; and/or conflict resolution. Individuals in other fields, including working professionals, are also encouraged to apply if their field of expertise requires them to study one of the critical languages listed above.
ALL DAVIS FELLOWSHIP APPLICATIONS MUST BE POSTMARKED BY FEBRUARY 1, 2010.
To be considered for a Davis Fellowship, please submit:
1. A complete application for the Language School to which you are applying, also postmarked by February 1. Incomplete Language School applications will disqualify your candidacy for a Davis Fellowship, [Note: The application includes a non-refundable process fee of $65.00.]
2. Three copies of the coversheet.
3. Three copies of the one-page Davis Fellowship essay.
4. Three copies of a resume or curriculum vitae.
