If you are committed to becoming fluent in the Thai language for purposes of career needs, you should not overlook the Blakemore Freeman Fellowships for Advanced Language Study. The program requires that you already be on an “advanced” footing with the language and be able to support your pursuits in light of career goals. For example, some professionals may be required to know Thai for a specific business or industry. The awards provide enough funding for travel expenses and all tuition costs.
