The competition for these awards is open only to recent Ph.D. (or comparable professional school degree) recipients and doctoral candidates. Those still pursuing a Ph.D. should have completed their routine training and be well along in the writing of their theses before becoming Scholars; those in possession of a Ph.D. longer than 3 years are ineligible. Each year four to five Academy Scholars are named for two-year appointments. Scholars are expected to reside in the Cambridge/Boston area for the duration of their appointments unless traveling for pre-approved research purposes.

  3. Savetovanje će biti odr?ano prve ili druge srede u septembru - postavićemo datum na na? sajt u skoroj budućnosti. Mo?ete nam se javiti telefonom i ostaviti kontakt da vas br?e obavestimo. Apliciranje za koled?e i univerzitete dok ste u SAD ne bi trebalo da bude problem ako ste se dobro pripremili ovde. Esej mo?ete da pi?ete i tamo, a mo?ete i ovde, a ?irok spektar vannastavnih aktivnosti u SAD sigurno mo?e biti od pomoći. Va?e iskustvo u SAD ne treba ignorisati u procesu apliciranja za dalje studije, tako da to definitivno preporučujemo da uradite.
  4. Te?ina TOEFL-a zavisi od va?eg znanja i tu nema pravila. Bez neke vrste probnog testa ne mo?emo da vam damo bilo kakvu procenu. S obzirom da TOEFL va?i dve godine, bilo bi potrebno da pa?ljivo razmotrite kada bi bilo najbolje da ga pola?ete. U svakom slučaju predla?emo da se za TOEFL i SAT pripremate pre odlaska na razmenu. Ostala pitanja u vezi sa stipendijama i va?im ?ansama za upis univerziteta koje ste naveli morate postaviti na nekom od na?ih besplatnih grupnih savetovanja za osnovne studije koja se odr?avaju jednom mesečno. Sledeće savetovanje je zakazano u septembru i mo?ete se prijaviti telefonom ili putem elektronske po?te.
  5. Intensive TOEFL prep on August 4, Graduate Advising on August 6

  6. Obično se u srednju ?kolu ide preko specijalizovanih agencija koje rade te programe razmene. U pitanju su komercijalne usluge i takve agencije mo?ete potra?iti u većim gradovima, mada ih nekad ima i u manjim mestima. Jedan od programa razmene za koji mo?ete da se prijavite je A Smyle, u okviru kojeg mo?ete da provedete ?kolsku godinu u SAD ako budete izabrani. Vi?e o tome se mo?ete raspitati u organizaciji American Councils. Postoje i drugi programi za koje mo?ete konkurisati dok ste u srednjoj ?koli, pogledajte ?ta se jo? nudi. ?to se tiče razmene preko agencija, morate da se raspitate kakvi su programi mogući. Pojedine ?kole u SAD zahtevaju da budete u njima i tokom trećeg i četvrtog razreda, dok neke nude samo četvrti razred. Naravno, znanje engleskog jezika bi moralo da vam bude prilično dobro da bi ta razmena mogla da bude uspe?na.

A recent article from U.S. News and World Report provides a list of some of the community colleges that offer on-campus housing for students. More than 100 two-year colleges have more than 3,000 students and offer campus housing. Not all states have residential community colleges of this size, but some, notably Texas, have several.

  9. The Ethnic Politics Workshop will be held during October 15-16, 2010, at The George Washington University (GW). The conveners seek to promote new approaches to the study of ethnic politics in the social sciences by bringing together a small interdisciplinary group of social scientists to exchange ideas, brainstorm, and provide constructive criticism of each other's works in progress. We envision the possibility of future meetings and hope that joint projects may result from the workshop. We seek social scientists (Ph.D. candidates near completion and beyond, based in North America) whose work: demonstrates substantial theoretical innovation grounded in empirical research; has ethnicity as a central focus (or "dependent variable"), not simply as one factor among many; has the potential to lead to generalizable and falsifiable arguments; and reflects (potential for) a long-term research program rather than a one-off project. Interested researchers should submit a CV and a one-page description of the research project idea they would like to present at the workshop, explaining how it fits into their longer-term research program. These should be sent to caitlin@gwu.edu by August 15, 2010. Applicants will be notified of decisions by early September. Transportation and accommodation costs will be covered by the organizers. The meeting is funded by a grant from the Dean of GW's Elliott School of International Affairs. Henry E.
