After you have answered all questions on the application form and provided the required supporting documents (résumé, transcript, and references), you will be asked to submit your application by clicking the “submit” button. Before doing so, make sure you have completed all fields and answered all questions thoroughly.
Applications will be reviewed based on information that you provide, and any incomplete responses will be judged accordingly. Applicants to the EHLS Program will be evaluated according to five selection criteria:
- language goals and motivation
- cultural knowledge
- research skills
- professional adaptability
- compatibility with the federal workplace
Detailed information about each criterion is available in the selection criteria definitions. Once you have clicked the “submit” button, you will not be able to make any further changes to your application.
The application and all supporting documents must be received by the application deadline.
