The African Language Fund (ALF) offers limited support for students preparing for doctoral research. These funds may be used to defray the costs of tuition, tutoring fees, textbooks, or other language-learning materials, or to assist with travel to language programs offered elsewhere, including in Africa. In exceptional circumstances, ALF may also be used for other scholarly projects. Consistent and committed participation in the African Studies Workshop and proof of satisfactory progress through the relevant doctoral program is required of all awardees. No budget should exceed $1,500, and actual awards may be less.
