If attending college in a foreign
country is a dream you thought completely out
of reach, then you haven’t heard about
Miami University’s Luxembourg Program
and the opportunity for you to “immerse
yourself in Europe’s diversity.”
Applications are now being accepted and there
are scholarships available. The deadline to
submit is January 24. Cordelia Stroinigg, coordinator
of the Dolibois European Center and the Luxembourg
Program encourages all Miami students to apply.
“The study abroad program fulfills all
University requirements and pertains to all
majors. This includes students on the Hamilton
and Middletown campuses,” she added. Scholarships
range from $1,000 to $3,500.
To apply, students simply fill out the application
forms to attend and file a FAFSA by Feb. 15th
of the year before they wish to study in Luxembourg.
The Office of Student Financial Aid automatically
forwards financial information for all accepted
students to the office. Applications can be
found on the Web site: www.units.muohio.edu/luxembourg
According to Luxembourg Executive Director
Ekkehard Stiller, Ph.D., “While in Luxembourg,
you will experience a challenging, relevant
and European-focused curriculum taught by distinguished
European and American faculty, offers an exciting
learning experience and gives our program its
excellent academic reputation. Our host family
program provides our students with the unique
opportunity to observe European family life
and become part of it. Life-long friendships
between host families and students are testimony
to its success. Center-sponsored and independent
weekend travels enable our students to explore
Europe, to reinforce formal classroom learning
and to observe, experience, and feel comfortable
in Europe’s various cultural settings.”
