About FLAS Fellowships
CLAS is seeking applications for FLAS Fellowships for Summer 2025 and Academic Year 2025-2026 under the U.S. Department of Education's Title VI Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship program. Fellowships are available for Ohio State graduate, professional, and undergraduate students pursuing a course of study requiring advanced foreign language (Haitian Creole, Portuguese, or Quechua) and Latin American area studies training. We also offer dissertation research and writing fellowships to graduate students. Subject to approval, FLAS fellowships may also be used for foreign language and area studies at other U.S. or foreign institutions.
Fellowships provide undergraduate, graduate, and professional students with tuition support and a stipend payment.
Applications will be submitted online (application window opens Friday, November 1, 2024) and are due by Saturday, February 1, 2025, 11:59 p.m. EST. Detailed application instructions will be made available soon.
Notification of competition results: Awards for both periods will be announced in mid-March 2025.
