Fulbright_StudentProd-webDid you know that in 2014, four Hampshire students won Fulbright awards to spend nine months either teaching English or conducting research in Bulgaria, Mexico, South Korea, and Thailand?

The Fulbright U.S. Student Program is the largest U.S. exchange program offering opportunities for students and young professionals to undertake international graduate study, advanced research, university teaching, and primary and secondary school teaching worldwide. The program currently awards approximately 1,900 grants annually in all fields of study, and operates in more than 140 countries worldwide. Read more on the CORC website!

The application cycle for a 2016-17 grant begins this spring and culminates with deadlines in the fall of 2015. Come explore this amazing opportunity at the upcoming Information Session at CORC. Carin and Jena, Hampshire’s Fulbright Program Advisers, will review grant types as well as application requirements and timelines–and, of course, answer your individual questions.
