The Office of National Fellowships and Scholarships is very pleased to share with you that º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ University was named one of the U.S. colleges and universities that produced the most 2021–2022 Fulbright U.S. students. Established over 75 years ago to increase mutual understanding between the United States and people of other countries, the Fulbright program is the world’s largest and most diverse international educational exchange program.

According to Associate Dean for Fellowship Advising Stephen Wright, PhD, “It is a testament to our students, to the teaching and mentorship of º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ faculty, and to the excellent educational opportunities at º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ that our students fare so well in the selection process.â€
