Provides future American leaders with unparalleled opportunities to study, teach, and conduct research in other nations.
Fulbright student grants aim to increase mutual understanding among nations through educational and cultural exchange while serving as a catalyst for long-term leadership development.

The U.S. Student Program awards approximately 1,000 grants annually and currently operates in over 140 countries worldwide. Fulbright full grants generally provide funding for round-trip travel, maintenance for one academic year, health and accident insurance and full or partial tuition, when appropriate. Fulbright travel-only grants are also available to limited countries.

The Fulbright program also provides teaching grants overseas to new graduates that are like typical Fulbright fellowships but require half-time English teaching in a wide variety of countries around the world. Applicants for “English Teaching Assistant” Fulbrights propose to spend the other half of their time learning about the country in which they are placed. These assignments require ability to teach English and work with secondary school students essential as assistants to regular local English faculty, and an outline of a subject of study.
