Fellowship Opportunities
- Fulbright
Fellowships are among the most prestigious fellowships for graduating
students, surpassed only by the Rhodes and a few others. They pay for
a year spent in some foreign country. There are two types: research Fulbrights,
for which the students must have a project, a location, and a contact
there, and in some cases knowledge of the language of the host country;
and teaching Fulbrights, where the students go to another country to teach
English.
For these, they do not need any of the above, but they do need
to convince the host country that they want this student as a teacher.
(Juniors should contact Dr. Reingold on campus in order to start early.)
