The Secretary of Defense may, in consultation with the National Security Education Board, carry out a pilot program to assess the feasibility and advisability of providing scholarships in accordance with the David L. Boren National Security Education Act of 1991 ( 50 U.S.C. 1901 et seq. ) to individuals otherwise eligible for scholarships under that Act for intensive language instruction in a covered Asian language. For purposes of this section, a covered Asian language is any of the five Asian languages that would be treated as a language in which deficiencies exist for purposes of section 802(a)(1)(A) of the David L.
Boren National Security Education Act of 1991 ( 50 U.S.C. 1902(a)(2)(A) ) if the National Security Education Board could treat an additional five Asian languages as a language in which such deficiencies exist. Notwithstanding any provision of the David L. Boren National Security Education Act of 1991, a scholarship awarded pursuant to the pilot program may be used for intensive language instruction in— the United States; or a country in which the covered Asian language concerned is spoken by a significant portion of the population (as determined by the Secretary for purposes of the pilot program).
In this section, the term National Security Education Board means the National Security Education Board established pursuant to section 803 of the David L. Boren National Security Education Act of 1991 ( 50 U.S.C. 1903 ). No scholarship may be awarded under the pilot program after the date that is five years after the date on which the pilot program is established.
