In the U.S., the program is funded by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the Department of State under the authority of the Fulbright-Hays Act of 1961. In Germany, the program is funded through the Administration of the Bundestag. This program is intended primarily for young adults in business, technical, vocational, and agricultural fields. Seventy-five Americans and 100 Germans participate in the program each year. For American participants, the 12- 4 month program begins in late July and consists of two months of instruction in German, four months of classroom instruction at a German University of Applied Sciences, and five months of internship in a career field. The scholarship for the student covers funding of international airfare, local transportation and stipend, language training/study costs, orientation, mid-year and final seminars, sickness and accident insurance. The student is responsible for personal expenses ($300-$500/month), active involvement in search for an internship position, and community integration in Germany. The deadline for each program year is December 1. Applications are read by a selection committee and pre-selection announcements are made in late January. Interviews take place at several sites around the country in February, and selection announcements are made in March. For more information go to http://www.usagermanyscholarship.org
