English for Heritage Language Speakers (EHLS) is an intensive professional development program for adults who have high levels of proficiency in their native or heritage language. For 2010, the program is recruiting native speakers of Arabic, Dari, Hausa, Igbo, Mandarin Chinese, Pashto, Persian Farsi, Swahili, Somali, and Urdu.

 

To qualify for admission to the program, an applicant must meet language proficiency criteria in both English and the native language. 

 

Each applicant who is admitted to the program will receive a scholarship. Scholarships cover the following: 

 

Tuition and fees for the entire eight-month program 

 

A small monthly living stipend for the first six months of the program, when participants are not permitted to work 

 

Health insurance for the first six months of the program 

 

Funds are also available to reimburse relocation expenses for admitted scholars from outside the metropolitan Washington, DC area.
