FRIT Departmental Scholarships Application

Letters of Recommendation

Letters of recommendation are required from two faculty members or one faculty member and one Graduate Teaching Associate. Please have them emailed by the recommender to Matt Lang. Letters should not exceed a few brief paragraphs.

In the field below, please submit a 300-500 word statement that explains your educational and career goals, how those involve French or Italian, as well as how the Departmental award for which you are applying will help to support those goals.

If you wish to be considered for the Arthur C. and Laura Bell Chamblin Jahn Memorial scholarship, please specifically address your interest in accounting or another area of business.. 

If the program for which you intend to apply does not yet have applications open (for Spring 2026, for example), you may provide us with a letter of intent to apply (including relevant program location and dates). In all cases, no study abroad scholarships are disbursed until after the student provides proof of enrollment in the study abroad program to the Department of French and Italian.
