For the 2024 award cycle, Georgetown University is proud to be a top-performing institution for Boren Graduate Fellowships, which offer study abroad opportunities for graduate students interested in geographic areas, languages and other fields of study underrepresented in study abroad and, more broadly, critical to U.S. national security.

Congratulations to the following recipients:

  • Dan (Dawn) Le (Foreign Service): Indonesian
  • Anna Prince (Linguistics): Mandarin
  • Grady McGregor (Asian Studies): Mandarin
  • Catherine Plywaczewski (Foreign Service): Polish
  • Sophie Williams (Eurasian, Russian & East European Studies): Polish
  • Lilly Horrigan (Eurasian, Russian & East European Studies): Russian
  • Cade Seely (Security Studies): Swahili
  • Molly Bucknam (Global Human Development): Swahili

Because of these eight recipients, this means we are now tied with Johns Hopkins University for the highest number of Boren Fellowships received this year.
