The Fulbright Program is a prestigious international exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government. It offers grants for students, scholars, teachers, and professionals to study, teach, and conduct research in other countries. The program was established in 1946 by Senator J. William Fulbright with the goal of promoting mutual understanding between the people of the United States and other countries.
Fulbright scholarships are highly competitive, and only a small number of applicants are selected each year. To be eligible, applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents, and they must have a strong academic record and a commitment to public service. Applicants must also be proficient in the language of the country they wish to study in.
