It's not exactly "study abroad" but it's a great chance to study 
critical languages at ...
Middlebury College Language Schools
Full Scholarships for Summer 2007 Courses

Middlebury College is pleased to announce the Kathryn Wasserman Davis 
Scholarships in Critical Language Study. These scholarships will 
cover the full cost of a summer of language study from beginner to 
graduate in Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian at the 
Middlebury College Language Schools during the summer of 2007. The 
scholarships are part of the "100 Summer Scholarships for Peace" 
Program, made possible by a $1 million gift from Kathryn Wasserman 
Davis. The purpose of the program is to address today's critical need 
for more effective language proficiency. Each individual grant covers 
the full comprehensive fee (tuition, room, and board) for one summer 
at the Middlebury Language Schools, plus transportation to and from 
Middlebury's Vermont campus and program related expenses. One summer 
of intensive immersion language at Middlebury is the equivalent of 
one full year of language study taken during the regular academic 
year (applicants who are interested in transferring academic credit 
should check with their home institution regarding transferability).

The Kathryn Wasserman Davis grants are merit-based and intended 
primarily for exceptionally qualified individuals with demonstrated 
interest in one or more of the following areas: foreign languages, 
international, global, or area studies, international politics and 
economics, peace and security studies, and/or conflict resolution. 
Individuals in other fields, including working professionals, are 
also encouraged to apply if their field of expertise requires them to 
study one of the critical languages listed above.

To qualify for consideration for one of the Kathryn Wasserman Davis 
grants, students need to submit, by February 15, 2007:
    * Application materials normally required for admission to the 
Middlebury Language Schools (available online at 
http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/ls/applications/) and
    * The cover sheet  found at www.middlebury.edu/academics/ls and 
brief essay 2-3 pp., double spaced) explaining the relevance of 
language study to your area of expertise, or field of study.
