Announcing NEW opportunities!
The Global Institute for Leadership & Civic Development is now offering select PLP Students scholarships of $5,000-$6,000 to attend their Fall 2009 Prague semester program! While on this semester study abroad you will automatically attend the International Leadership Association conference, as this semester program is fully endorsed by the ILA. You will also be able to take courses in leadership studies, political science, humanities, law, international relations and diplomacy, journalism, business, or sociology.
These scholarships are in addition to any scholarships you get through the PLP--meaning you could study abroad for a whole semester for around the same price as a summer program!
Seniors! Interested but not sure? These credits can be taken at the graduate level! Allowing you to work towards a higher degree after graduating from CNU!
If you have any questions or are interested in this opportunity, please come up to the PLP office and speak with Matthew Creasy.
