Do you want to get experience living and working in Asia?
Have you spent 18 weeks or less in Asia since you graduated from high school?
If so, you may be eligible to apply for the Luce Scholars Program. The Luce is a one-year internship in your field after graduation in Asia or Southeast-Asia, and it is designed specifically for students and recent alumni who are U.S. citizens and who have spent less than 18 weeks in Asia since graduating from high school. For any candidate, even students who lived in Asia as a child or teenager, the Luce eligibility requirements this year would only count time in Asia since high school graduation toward the 18-week limit. With these new requirements, even more students on our campus are eligible to apply – maybe you!
