The University of Michigan International Institute is pleased to announce the availability of Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowships for both undergraduate and graduate students. A FLAS Fellowship provides tuition support and a stipend to students studying designated foreign languages in combination with area studies or international aspects of professional studies. Fellowships are offered for the academic year and for summer. The program's priority is to encourage the study of less commonly taught languages.

Eligibility:

• FLAS Fellows must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
• FLAS Fellows must be enrolled as full-time students at the University of Michigan. Students graduating in May or August 2013 are not eligible.

Application Deadline: February 1, 2013

FLAS Fellowships are administered by the Area Studies Centers at the International Institute and are awarded competitively through annual fellowship competitions. The U.S. Department of Education funds these awards under the provisions of Title VI of the Higher Education Act.
