Ohio State undergraduate students apply for the Fulbright U.S. Student Program through the Honors Collegium.

 

Fulbright U.S. Student Program

The Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers over 1,400 opportunities for students to study, research, or teach abroad while promoting cross-cultural interaction and mutual understanding. Candidates looking to study or conduct research abroad will need to develop an independent program proposal and secure an in-country affiliation. Grants will fund project and living expenses for an 8-12 month period.  

Students apply to a specific country for a specific proposal. You may only apply to one country to do one thing. Thus, the first step is to select where you’d like to go and what you plan to do there.   

Each country has their own number of grants, selection criteria, and eligibility qualifications.  You should carefully review the requirements for your country of interest! This information is published annually in the Fulbright “book,” available from the Honors Collegium office in 301 Enarson Hall. Country Descriptions are also available online.
