    I would love to be selected for this opportunity! Is it possible to choose to do fall semester instead of spring?

  2. This sounds fantastic! I'm an International Studies major and a requirement of our major is that we must minor in a language. I chose Japanese because my area emphasis is East Asia. But to minor in a language you must spend at least one semester of study abroad. I'm due to spend next year (Fall 2009 to Spring 2009) abroad at NUFS and this scholarship would certainly make things easier financially. How can I learn more?
