AVEF will support fees, transportation, living expenses and incidentals for a program selected by the student. Students should begin by analyzing their interests, aptitudes and passions to guide them in finding a summer program. The program of interest can be located within the United States or even abroad. The program of interest must have an educational component.</p>
			<p class="generalText">Students must complete the AVEF application before the deadline and interview with our selection committee. This program is competitive and open to current juniors only. The Fellowship Application Form is available below.</p>
