Come to this session to learn about applying for the Critical Language Scholarship (CLS) Program, a fully-funded overseas language and cultural immersion program for American undergraduate and graduate students. With the goal of broadening the base of Americans studying and mastering critical languages and building relationships between the people of the United States and other countries, CLS provides opportunities to a diverse range of students from across the United States at every level of language learning.

The CLS Program is part of a U.S. government effort to expand dramatically the number of Americans studying and mastering critical foreign languages. Students of diverse disciplines and majors are encouraged to apply. Participants are expected to continue their language study beyond the scholarship period, and later apply their critical language skills in their future professional careers.

Target languages:
Azerbaijani, Bangla, Hindi, Indonesian, Korean, Punjabi, Swahili, Turkish, and Urdu at the Beginning, advanced beginning, intermediate and advanced levels;
Arabic and Persian at the Advanced beginning, intermediate and advanced levels;
Chinese, Japanese, and Russian at the Intermediate and advanced levels.
