study-x] USA: Stipendium pro ceske studenty na University of

[Milena Stiborova]

*The Paul Robitschek Czech Study Program*
**
*The Paul Robitschek Czech Study Program* provides scholarships to
undergraduate students from universities or institutions of higher
learning in the Czech Republic so that they may fully participate in
American life while studying at the University of Nebraska for two
academic semesters - approximately 9 months.

The program has been established to benefit students who have a serious
commitment to experiencing American democracy and for whom studying in
America might not otherwise be economically possible. It was the intent
of the Donor to ensure that the recipients of the Scholarship gain in
deeper understanding of the democratic way of life. To do so, it is
expected of the recipients to enter this educational experience with an
open mind and to be enthusiastically receptive to the different
influences to which they will be exposed in and out of the classroom.

Further, it was the Donor's hope that by doing so, the experience will
help to enrich their lives and contribute the their ability to take up
positions of leadership within the Czech Republic.

*Application*

The Robitschek program is designed for students who will have at least
one more year of education to complete their degree in the Czech
Republic. For example, you would meet this requirement if you completed
one or more years of study before coming to the University of Nebraska,
then would return to your university to complete one or more years of
your program.

Interested applicants shall submit a current Curriculum Vitae (Résumé)
and a brief essay stating the reasons for the applicant's interest in
studying in the United States. The specific areas to be addressed in
this essay are:

1. How did you learn about the Robitschek Scholarship?
2. What is your reason(s) for wanting to study in the United States?
3. How might you expect that this year could impact your future goals?
4. What would you like to be doing in 10 years?
5. If you were accepted as a Robitschek Scholar, why do you think you
would be successful at the University of Nebraska?
6. How many years of tertiary education do you need to complete your
degree in the Czech Republic, and what degree will you obtain?
