AFS Intercultural Exchange Program is announcing some scholarships for students who plan to be exchange students. They are:
1. The National Security Language Initiative for Youth - this is sponsored by the US State Dept and provides merit-based scholarships for eligible students to learn less commonly taught languages in summer and academic-year overseas immersion programs.
2. The Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study Program (YES) - this is also funded by the US State Dept and provides scholarships for students to live in selected countries with Muslim populations.
