Major Fellowships
Fulbright U.S. Student Program
The Fulbright U.S. Student Program provides grants for individually designed study/research projects or English Teaching Assistantships. During their grants, Fulbrighters will meet, work, live with and learn from the people of the host country, sharing daily experiences. The program facilitates cultural exchange through direct interaction on an individual basis in the classroom, field, home, and in routine tasks, allowing the grantee to gain an appreciation of others’ viewpoints and beliefs, the way they do things, and the way they think. Through engagement in the community, the individual will interact with their hosts on a one-to-one basis in an atmosphere of openness, academic integrity, and intellectual freedom, thereby promoting mutual understanding. Grant lengths and dates vary by country. Graduating seniors as well as graduates of all classifications are eligible. The Office of Major Fellowships begins advising students for Clemson’s campus review process in early summer. Interested students should contact the OMF as soon as possible after the end of the spring semester to begin the application process.
As a first step, students can self-enroll in the Fulbright Canvas course when it is active. Check back in April for the active link.
