Applicants should be familiar with the U.S. educational system. Although USIEF does not require applicants to have a letter of affiliation from a U.S. institution at the time of applying, it encourages that all applicants correspond, in advance, with potential host institutions. If you are selected for an award but are unable to arrange an affiliation or name an institution in the U.S. with which you would want to be affiliated, USIEF will help secure placement.
