Students are invited to attend upcoming information sessions to learn more about Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) awards for the study of critical and less commonly taught languages at UW-Madison.
FLAS fellowships are funded by the U.S. Department of Education and administered by the UW’s area & international studies centers to assist students in acquiring foreign language and area or international studies competencies.
Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents of the United States. Preference will be given to applicants with a high level of academic ability and with previous language training. The application deadline is February 10, 2020.
There will be two information sessions for students interested in applying for a FLAS award. The content of the sessions will be identical; students need only attend one session:
Tuesday, November 19, 2019
4:00 – 5:00 pm in 336 Ingraham Hall
Monday, January 27, 2020
4:00 – 5:00 pm in 206 Ingraham Hall
