USEFP announced two competitive non-degree programs this quarter: the 2025 Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship and the 2025 Foreign Language Teaching Assistant (FLTA) program.
The Humphrey Fellowship is a 10- to 12-month program that targets mid-level professionals aiming to build on their knowledge base by enrolling in non-degree coursework and getting some work experience in the United States. Selected applicants are expected to share information about Pakistani culture and life with their American colleagues.
Applicants this year were required to provide proof of their English proficiency by submitting a Duolingo English Test score report, or a valid TOFEL iBT or IELTS score, with the application form. The deadline to apply was April 24.
The FLTA program is for teachers of English at the college and university level, preferably those who are still early in their careers. During the nine-month grant period, participants hone their English skills at a university in the United States, teach Urdu or Pashto to American students, enroll in non-degree coursework, and network with their host communities. The call for applications this year closed on April 3.
Both programs are fully funded and require selected applicants to come back to Pakistan upon completion.
