April 9th, 2009, 1:37 pm by Michelle Reese

This information came into the Tribune this week:

A new scholarship program designed to increase the number of African Americans who study abroad was announced today.

The new program, launched by the National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education (NAFEO) and the American Institute For Foreign Study (AIFS), will make $100,000 in scholarship money available to African American undergraduate students studying abroad starting in fall 2010.

Scholarship winners will be able to study on programs sponsored by AIFS in London and Italy (Richmond, the American University in London); Stellenbosch, South Africa (Stellenbosch University); the Czech Republic (Charles University); and other programs in Spain and France. Programs are available in the summer, spring and fall semesters.
