The NSLI-Y program provides merit-based scholarships for eligible high school students and recent high school graduates to learn less commonly taught languages in summer and academic-year overseas immersion programs. The program immerses participants in the cultural life of the host country, giving them formal and informal language practice and sparking a lifetime interest in foreign languages and cultures. Summer and academic year programs are available for Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), Hindi, Indonesian, Korean, Persian (Tajiki), Russian, and Turkish. The deadline to apply for NH19 programs is October 30, 2018 at 4:00 pm ET. More information about the program and application can be found at http://www.nsliforyouth.org.
Outbound CBYX and YES Abroad NH19 applications are expected to launch within the next month, and we'll post an update here in MyAFS once those applications are available. In the meantime, interested volunteers and potential applicants should visit the program websites to learn more or to register to be notified once an application opens:

I found a strand that ended 2016. Are colleagues still as enthusiastic about T'es branche? Am on the brink of switching from Bien dit! to T'es branche. Have taught Spanish using Vista Descubre and like the on-line capabilities complement to the text. Does T'es branche have good on-line resources?
