FLAS fellowships support graduate and undergraduate study in modern foreign languages in combination with area studies, international studies, or international or area aspects of professional studies. These fellowships are administered by the University of Illinois Area Studies Centers and Programs, and are awarded through an annual competition. Students from all departments and professional schools are encouraged to apply. Priority is given to the study of less commonly taught languages and each Center has specific priorities.


The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS) FLAS fellowships may be used for the study of Brazilian Portuguese, Quechua or any other Amerindian Language, or at the advanced level (third-year or above) Spanish. Priority is given to the study of less commonly taught languages. Applicants are ineligible for support to study a language of which they are a native speaker. CLACS awards Summer FLAS fellowships only to graduate students, and Academic Year FLAS fellowships to both graduate and undergraduate students.
