The U. S. Department of State is pleased to announce the scholarship
competition for the 2013 Critical Language Scholarship (CLS) Program
in thirteen critical need foreign languages.

The CLS Program provides fully-funded group-based intensive language
instruction and structured cultural enrichment experiences for seven
to ten weeks for U.S. citizen undergraduate and graduate students.

Languages offered: Arabic, Azerbaijani, Bangla, Chinese, Hindi,
Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Punjabi, Russian, Turkish, and
Urdu.

The application is available online at http://www.clscholarship.org.
Applications will be due November 15, 2012.

Prior to preparing their application, interested students should
review the full eligibility and application information on the CLS
Program website: www.clscholarship.org/applicants.

Arabic, Chinese, Persian, Russian, and Japanese institutes have
language prerequisites, which can also be found at the link above.

Students from all academic disciplines, including business,
engineering, law, medicine, sciences, and humanities are encouraged to
apply.

While there is no service requirement attached to CLS Program awards,
participants are expected to continue their language study beyond the
scholarship period, and later apply their critical language skills in
their professional careers.

The CLS Program will be planning outreach events at universities
across the U.S. in fall 2012. Check out the CLS webpage or our
