Educational Advising for NIS Students
    
One of the most frequent requests CCSI receives is for information about
education and fellowship opportunities for NIS students who wish to attend U
.S. universities. We usually refer people to one of the Educational Advising
Centers (EACs) located throughout Eurasia, which are sponsored by USIA, the
Soros Foundations, the Peace Corps and others.  Where can you find contact
information for these centers? Via CCSI's Web site.
    
CCSI's Web site manager, Deirdre Shelly, has compiled a very interesting
list of online Educational Advising resources. In addition to lists of EACs
in Eurasia, she has found Web sites that have:
    
*  grant and fellowship announcements
*  how-to-guides for applying to U.S. schools
*  directories of U.S. universities and business schools
    
There is even a Web site, Collegescape, where you can apply electronically
to more than 200 U.S. colleges and universities.
    
To visit the list of resources Deirdre has compiled, follow the link
