The summer scholarship begins with week (June 24-July 1) with classes on Zoom in Guam. For weeks two and three (July 2-July 16), JAL scholars will travel to Tokyo and Fukuoka. For the overseas portion of the program, JAL will provide roundtrip airfare, domestic transportation, insurance and a per diem.
