FYI.
Please note that the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship is open to NEW Americans ONLY. Read below to find out who can apply.
Thirty fellowships are awarded each year. The Fellow receives $20,000 plus half of the tuition (other half expected to cover by other other sources like grants and summer work.)
Application deadline is November 1, 2004.
I don't see any Nepali selectec yet. Go for it if you qualify.
For details, go to
http://www.pdsoros.org/about.html Who is eligible to become a Fellow?
A New American is an individual who (1) is a resident alien; i.e., holds a Green Card or, (2) has been naturalized as a U.S. citizen or (3) is the child of two parents who are both naturalized citizens.
The Program is open to individuals who retain loyalty and a sense of commitment to their country of origin as well as to the United States, but is intended to support individuals who will continue to regard the United States as their principal residence and focus of national identity.
The applicant must either have a bachelor's degree or be in her/his final year of undergraduate study. Those who have a bachelor's degree may already be pursuing graduate study and may receive Fellowship support to continue that study. Individuals who are in the third, or subsequent, year of study in the same graduate program are not, however, eligible for this competition. Students who have received a master's degree in a program and are continuing for a doctoral degree in the same program are considered to have been in the same program from the time they began their work on their master's degree.
To be eligible you must not be older than thirty years of age as of NOVEMBER 1, 2004.
