Registration is the first step in your Application-- you must first register for the program. Once registered, you will be sent a link to your individual Application Portal where you will complete your IUHPFL Application.
You must complete the online registration process between September 15th and November 15th. This initial deadline helps to ensure that applicants and their teachers have enough time before the December 1 application deadline to complete all parts of the application.

Please send an email to iuhpfl@iu.edu with the name of the original appraiser and your request to replace them with a new appraiser. Once we delete the original request in the Student Portal, you will be able to enter a new appraisal request.
On the same day that IUHPFL sends the student an “Invitation to Apply” email, we send their world language teacher an email notifying them that their student has been invited to apply. The Writing Sample Worksheet is attached to that email. If your teacher can’t find that email in their inbox, let us know and we will resend it to them right away.
Applicants are highly encouraged to submit all application components by the due date, however in rare circumstances, extensions for one or two components may be granted. An extension may be requested by emailing iuhpfl@iu.edu. The email should include the reason the extension is needed and details for how/when the application component will be submitted.
