About this opportunity

The Fulbright Foreign Student Program enables graduate students, young professionals, and artists from abroad to study and conduct research in the United States. Benefits usually include tuition, living stipend, accident and sickness coverage, and round-trip travel, but exact packages are set by each country’s Fulbright commission or U.S. embassy. There is no single global deadline. Apply only through your country’s official Fulbright office and treat foreign.fulbrightonline.org as the directory, not as a universal application form.
