AmeriCorps Partnership with Middlebury Language Schools
Middlebury Language Schools is an official partner with AmeriCorps to provide funding for our programs.
Funding
Middlebury Language Schools will match the Segal Education Award up to $1,000 for AmeriCorps members, alumni or staff members. Middlebury started this partnership in 2024.
Applicants can apply for additional merit-based scholarships and need-based financial aid, however the total cannot exceed the amount of the program.
Deadline
You are encouraged to apply as early as possible, and follow the application deadlines.
Application
- Please review the Language School’s application requirements and instructions.
- Once you have started your application (and before you have submitted it), please email languages@middlebury.edu to receive your application fee waiver.
- Once the waiver has been processed (typically within 24 hours), submit your application with the required transcript(s) and recommendation form.
- When you apply, indicate in the short answer questions that you’re affiliated with AmeriCorps.
- Upon submitting your application, you will receive confirmation emails which will include links to additional funding opportunities.

“I chose Middlebury Language Schools because my professor had nothing but good things to say about the program. Then after a term of service with AmeriCorps, I had a grant for education expenses. I learned that the campus is gorgeous, the food is good, and they are serious about the Language Pledge.” Jack Pearson, German 7-week Immersion Program
