(This is an exact replication of the online application. Please use this document to prepare. You must submit your application through the online form. No other form of application will be accepted.) Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies Undergraduate Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Application Deadline: 12:01am, January 19, 2011 The online application will close at precisely 12:01:00am on January 19, 2011. Please do not wait until the last second to submit! General Information FLAS Undergraduate Fellowships are administered by the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies National Resource Centers, in coordination with the Office of Merit Scholarships, Fellowships & Awards, under a grant from the United States Department of Education. The Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship Program's mission is to meet the national needs for expertise and competence in foreign language and area or international studies. Each of the National Resource Centers offers FLAS Fellowships in languages relevant to each center's focus. The centers offering undergraduate fellowships, and their relevant languages, are: East Asia Center: Chinese, Japanese, Korean Center for Global Studies: Arabic, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Chinese, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian/Malay, Kazakh, Korean, Persian, Portuguese, Russian, Swahili, Tagalog, Thai, Turkish, Uighur, Vietnamese Middle East Studies Center: Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Turkish Russia, East Europe, Central Asia Studies (REECAS/Ellison Center): Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Bulgarian, Czech, Estonian, Kazakh, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Russian, Slovenian, Tajik, Uyghur (Uighur), Uzbek South Asian Studies Center: Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Persian Southeast Asian Studies Center: Burmese, Filipino/Tagalog, Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese, Center for West European Studies: *Danish, *Estonian, Finnish, Italian, *Latvian, *Lithuanian, Norwegian, Portuguese, *Swedish, Turkish. * Indicates the language is unlikely to be taught at the UW in the summer. Applicants may apply for FLAS funding for more than one language, or for a language offered by more than one center, but must submit a separate and complete application for each center. (NOTE: Only one complete set of three recommendation letters is necessary no matter how many centers you are applying to. You may include more letters, but note that all letters will be attached to all applications.) Understanding the focus of each center and the relevance of the languages offered to that focus is important to developing a strong application. For example, the Center for West European Studies offers support for the study of Turkish, but its focus would be on Turkish as it is used within Western Europe, not Turkey. The Middle East Center offers Turkish, and its focus would be the use of Turkish in Turkey, not Western Europe. So choosing which center to apply to is driven by your language and the focus for your studies. FLAS Awards and Benefits Undergraduate students may complete this application to be considered for either or both of the following FLAS Fellowship options from any and all of the centers listed above: Summer Intensive Language Study Awards - To be eligible for Summer FLAS funding, applicants must propose summer language study programs that provide a minimum of 6 consecutive weeks of intensive language study: at least 140 classroom hours if at the intermediate level; at least 120 hours if advanced.
