Award recipients are required to share their experiences with their home campuses or communities to encourage study abroad by others and fulfill the program's goal of increasing understanding of Asia in the United States.

With generous funding from the Freeman Foundation, the Institute of International Education (IIE) is grateful to have relaunched Freeman-ASIA in 2016.

 

 

Award Benefits:

 

A Freeman-ASIA Award provides need-based funding to assist the recipient with the cost of the study abroad program and related expenses, including airfare, basic living costs, local transportation, books, etc.

For Advisers

Important Information for Study Abroad and Financial Aid Advisers

Each applicant is required to secure the certification of their application from their Study Abroad and Financial Aid Advisers. Applications without these certifications will be disqualified. Applicants will register their Advisers as they complete the Embark online Freeman-ASIA application itself, and the Advisers will then receive log-in instructions via email, which will allow them to access their student's application to complete the certification process. Other than this registration, there is no specific sign-up process to become a Freeman-ASIA certifier.

Please note that although applications do not have to be submitted to be certified, students must have completed the relevant information pertaining to each Adviser in order for their application to be certified.

Study Abroad Advisers

Applicants are required to reach out to their Study Abroad Adviser to discuss their study abroad plans, and confirm that their program meets the Freeman-ASIA eligibility requirements. It is important that students identify and communicate with the individual on campus best suited to certify their application. This person is normally a campus Study Abroad Adviser, or the individual who is most familiar with the study abroad program to which the student is applying. Other faculty or staff members who are not familiar with the study abroad program should not be asked to certify the application.
 
When students have completed (but not submitted) their portion of the application, they will be asked to register their Study Abroad Adviser using the recommendations portal of the Embark application. The Adviser will then receive an email with login information and instructions for completing the certification. They will then review the academic and programmatic information provided in the application, offering corrections or clarification to the student's responses where necessary. The application will be considered certified when the Adviser confirms in her/his response and/or corrections that the applicant and the program are eligible, and that the program is approved by the home institution.

Financial Aid Advisers

Each Freeman-ASIA application requires the certification of the applicant's Financial Aid Adviser. Applicants should plan to meet with their Financial Aid Adviser to discuss their financial need for study abroad. When students have completed (but not submitted) their portion of the application, they will be asked to register their Financial Aid Adviser using the recommendations portal of the Embark application. The Adviser will then receive an email with login information and instructions for completing the application certification. Financial Aid Advisers will review the financial aid and financial need information provided in the application, and offer corrections or clarification if necessary. The application will be considered certified when the Adviser confirms in their responses that the applicant meets the financial need requirements.

For applicants whose Financial Aid and are the same person, the application will contain an option for dual certification from a single Adviser.

Be aware that both Advisers must meet the adviser deadline (normally one week following the student deadline) in order for the application to be considered.

 

Application Process

STUDENT DEADLINE:October 20, 2016
ADVISER DEADLINE: October 27, 2016

The summer application generally opens in mid-January, with a late February/early March deadline. The fall and academic year application generally opens in mid-February, with an early April deadline.
