All out-of-state students who register for either of the Intensive Japanese Language courses (First and Second Year Japanese ONLY) will receive a scholarship that will reduce the tuition fee to the in-state tuition rate for the 10-week, 10-credit course. In 2008, the the tuition rate will be $504/credit = $504 x 10 credits = $5,040.

All applicants to SEALS are eligible to apply for additional financial support. Scholarships for summer intensive language study are available. To apply for financial aid, please send a letter of application (hardcopy or e-mail). In the letter, please include the following points:

• Indicate whether you are interested in the First Year Japanese program or the Second Year Japanese program;

• Include a statement of purpose explaining the reason for studying Japanese and how training in Japanese will fit into your overall academic goal and/or professional career.

In addition to the letter, have the last school you attended (or are now attending) send us the transcript of your academic performance. There is not a specific application form.
