The US Student Program is designed to promote mutual understanding which is best accomplished through spending a significant amount of time in one country. However, multi-country proposals are possible. Pay close attention to which countries or world regions permit multi-country proposals. You will submit a single proposal for a single project that will be carried out in 2 or 3 eligible countries in the same world region. Keep in mind that you will need to provide a sound rationale for why the particular project needs to take place in more than one country, indicate the amount of time that you will spend in each country, identify affiliations in each country, obtain the necessary research clearances, and meet all other country specific requirements or preferences. Furthermore if you are recommended for a grant, all the countries to which you applied must approve your application.

Please note that Western European countries may not be included in a multi-country proposal.
