Description

The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, Office of Assistance Coordination (NEA/AC) U.S.-Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) manages the Tomorrow’s Leaders (TL) Program, a leadership development program that provides scholarships for students from countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) to attend American-style, nonprofit, independent higher education institutions based in the MENA region, and accredited by a U.S. Department of Education-recognized regional accreditation body. The scholarship program targets students from around the region who are academically qualified but otherwise unable to afford American-style higher education. Students are civic- minded and given additional leadership and community action activities to advance their knowledge, skills, and abilities to be MENA-based community and national leaders after graduation. The Tomorrow’s Leaders Undergraduate (TLU) Program provides approximately 60 qualified students with the opportunity to conduct one semester of study at an U.S. university each fall and spring semester. This solicitation will enhance TL Study Abroad Oversight, Monitoring, and Support by: a) providing oversight, monitoring, and support to students studying in the United States; b) providing financial support and travel coordination; c) analyzing, assessing, and making recommendations for improvements to the study abroad component of the TLU program; d) liaising with MENA-based universities and U.S. host universities; and e) recruiting and selecting new qualified U.S. host universities.
