• National Security Education Program Scholarship

    Applications for NSEP scholarships are now available on line for freshmen, sophomores and juniors who are planning to study abroad in 2007-2008. The intent of the program is to provide financial support to U.S. undergraduates who, through study abroad, will acquire skills and experience in less commonly studied languages and cultures. This highly competitive scholarship is merit-based and pays up to $12,000
    per semester. Carleton students have been very successful at winning this prestigious award.

    The campus deadline for completed applications is Monday, January 15, 2007. Students must begin working on the lengthy and detailed application during winter break in order to complete it by the deadline. All applicants will be interviewed on campus in January. Applications are due in Washington D.C. by February 13, and finalists will be notified of awards in May 2007.

    Funding for summer programs, particularly in the applied sciences and engineering (which includes computer science, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics and environmental sciences) has been expanded from first and second year students to include juniors and seniors.
