Participants must be citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. or Canada.
Applications to this program are currently not possible.
Accepted participants are eligible for a DAAD stipend, pending final confirmation of funding. There is a $50 course fee.
DAAD awards grants to cover tuition, travel, and room and board during the seminar.
