Fulbright provides full funding for a year abroad in over 100 countries for graduating seniors and graduate students who are U.S. citizens. Fulbright full grants generally provide round-trip transportation; language or orientation courses, where appropriate; tuition, in some cases; book and research allowances; a maintenance allowance for the academic year, based on living costs in the host country; and supplemental health and accident insurance.

A certain portion of the awards are reserved for graduating seniors. While excellence in the field of study and a strong academic record are preconditions for this fellowship, candidates are also selected using the following criteria: their project is both valid and feasible, they have the language qualifications they need for their specific program, have knowledge of the host country, and they possess characteristics that may make them a good ambassador. Currently enrolled students are strongly encouraged to be endorsed by USC, rather than applying “at large.”
Campus Deadline: September 19, 2007

Eligibility: Candidates must:

• be a U.S. Citizen
• hold a bachelor’s degree before the beginning of the grant date, but not a doctorate
• present a study, plan, or project that can be completed in one academic year

Online application – Applicants are required to use the Fulbright online application system. Establish an account on-line at https://apply.embark.com/student/fulbright/usa/19/ [Application system available beginning May 1, 2007]

How to submit application to USC – Please print and submit your application in quadruplicate (original and three copies) to Student Union 202 by the USC deadline: September 19, 2007.
