March 10th, 3pm CST

The 2022-2023 Fulbright U.S. Student Program competition opens on March 31, 2021 and we have a Fulbright/IIE-led information session coming up on March 10!

The Fulbright U.S. Student Program (FUSP) is designed to give soon-to-graduate undergrads (current juniors and above), master’s & doctoral candidates, and young professionals & artists opportunities for personal development and international experience.

Complete information on the competition, campus resources & deadlines, and more is at http://go.wisc.edu/fusp

The program is open to undergraduates (graduating by the time they would take up their award), currently enrolled graduate students, and alumni. To be eligible for the Fulbright U.S. Student Program, you must be a U.S. citizen. Our first information session is scheduled for Wednesday, March 10, 2021 at 3pm CST.

Advanced registration is required; register @ http://go.wisc.edu/FulbrightInfoSession

Fulbright will lead the information session with a UW-Madison breakout following immediately. We’ll discuss what Fulbright offers students & alumni; things to keep in mind when exploring opportunities; options to conduct research, study, teach English, practice art, and more; the timeline & deadlines; strategies to prepare for the upcoming award cycle (and future competitions if you’re not quite ready to apply); campus resources; and more!

The campus deadline for the 2021-2022 competition is September 16, 2021; the national deadline is October 12, 2021.

Mark Lilleleht, the campus Fulbright Program Advisor, will be available throughout the coming months to work with students & alumni interested in learning more about the program and those who applying. In addition to upcoming information sessions, you can set up an appointment at any time by emailing Mark at awards@iris.wisc.edu. Appointments to discuss any and everything Fulbright-related are available and encouraged!
