AFE Proposals must be submitted for all AFEs, including faculty-arranged options!
Note: If you are submitting a proposal for more than one AFE opportunity, please indicate in the Project Description which is your first and second preference.
Please also note that all suggestions related to specialty areas of study are not a guarantee of approval; final approval of your proposal depends on your individual AFE proposal and your connections made between your AFE and your specialty area.
All proposals for International AFEs in Fall and Winter terms must be submitted online through the AFE Proposal Form. Please review the overview for the AFE you are applying for and ensure you send any additional supporting documents to the correct contact person.
Note: Your application (AFE proposal + supporting documents) is not considered complete without your FIME certificate. Please visit the Western International website for instructions on how to complete the online modules. It is recommended that you complete the FIMEs modules within the 3 months prior to your departure, though certificates completed up to 6 months prior to departure are accepted.
The required in-person pre-departure components will be scheduled in November 2018 and are a condition of approval for participation in an International AFE.
