Fullbright Scholarship program

For US Citizens

If you:

• Are a U.S. citizen, and
• Are a graduating senior or hold a B.S./B.A. degree, master's, or doctoral degree candidate, or young professional or artist, and
• Are thinking of studying, teaching or conducting research abroad, and
• Are in good health

you could be one of more than 1,300 candidates who receive a Fulbright grant each year to go overseas. The Fulbright U.S. Student Program operates in more than 140 countries worldwide and grants are available in all fields of study.

For UK Citizens

Awards are offered to UK citizens or EU citizens resident in the UK to study, lecture or pursue research in the United States.

All Fulbright scholars travel to the United States on a J1 visa which requires them, on completion of their study programme, to return to their home country for a cumulative total of two years before they become eligible for a temporary worker's visa or for permanent residence in the United States. Tourist travel during this time is not affected.

The Fulbright Scholars and Fellows Awards allow post-doctoral lecturers and academics, and professionals in a variety of fields, to spend a period of time researching in the US.
