Application Year: rising seniors and recent alumni
Description: Princeton in Asia fully funds students to spend 1-2 years doing internships in countries across Central Asia, East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Current countries include Cambodia, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Mongolia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. Please note that the 1-2 year Fellowship program is open to students of any university. The summer internship program is only for students from Princeton University.
Applicant Eligibility: The primary prerequisite for a PiA fellowship is a bachelor’s degree. Some positions may require additional work experience or credentials. We do accept candidates with master’s degrees, but not those with terminal or professional degrees (e.g., Ph.D, medical, law, etc.).
PiA applicants are generally college seniors or recent college graduates. Graduates of any college or university are eligible to apply for a PiA fellowship. There is no age limit for applying to PiA.
While PiA does not restrict eligibility based on US citizenship or residency status, all candidates must present a compelling rationale for how they will contribute to PiA’s mission of United States-Asia exchange. Please note that host countries’ visa restrictions may limit our ability to place citizens of certain nationalities.
Application Process: Application materials are due on November 1 each year.
