International Summer Award - Summer 2006
IEFP-sponsored summer study abroad

New Major/Intended Major 
Option:  Economics!  Newly added are two programs 
approved for majors or intended majors in 
economics:  London School of Economics, 
Pembroke-King's Cambridge Summer School.  For 
links to these programs, as well as general ISA 
information, please go to the IEFP-ISA web site 
http://www.yale.edu/isa/programs_iefp.html --
and read below for application instructions.

The application process explained one more time 
-- read this carefully, because we have been 
hearing that there is much confusion out there 
about how and where to apply for IEFP-ISA 
sponsored programs (a list of the IEFP sponsored 
programs can be found at 
http://www.yale.edu/isa/programs_iefp.html 
).  Share this information with your roommates, 
neighbors, the student sitting next to you in 
class.  If you miss IEFP's deadline (noon, 
Friday, February 24) you will not receive ISA funding for summer 2006!

1.You must apply to one of the IEFP designated 
programs by the program deadlines (you can find 
deadlines on the program web sites -- see above 
URL for a link to the programs). Note that 
sometimes the programs will fill before the 
stated deadlines, so don't wait -- apply now!

2.You must also apply to IEFP using the Student 
Grants Database registration page, and IEFP's 
application forms, by noon, Friday, February 
24.  Our forms are available at 
http://www.yale.edu/isa/programs_iefp.html#IEFPapp_process, 
and the application checklist will link you to 
the Student Grants Database.  DO NOT wait to 
be  admitted to your university/program of choice 
before applying to IEFP - you must apply by our 
February 24 deadline or you will not receive the ISA funding.

3. Verify your eligibility for ISA funding, and 
find out what percentage of the costs you are 
eligible for by contacting Carolyn Falls in 
Student Financial Services (carolyn.falls at yale.edu).


A note about the February 24 deadline: It will be 
very very busy in IEFP on that date, so if you 
want to avoid standing in a long line of students 
turning in ISA applications, do not wait until 
next Friday – come in earlier in the week and 
save yourself time and frustration!

If you have ANY questions about the process, 
please call the office at 432-8684.  It may be 
possible to get clarification from Pam when you 
call, or she may suggest you come in and meet 
with me.  Do not let confusion over the process 
stop you from receiving ISA funding to attend 
non-Yale summer study abroad programs!
