Fellowships & Grants
Welcome to the Office of Fellowships and Grants! Are you thinking about applying? The process of applying for a major award is the point; winning the award is a bonus. Applying allows you to define who you are and to clarify where you are going with your life. It is a process of self-discovery and self-definition. It is time consuming and laborious, but the rewards outweigh the effort required.
Winning the award opens doors that might otherwise have remained closed to you, allowing you opportunities to further yourself and carry out dreams of improving the world. You edify yourself, those around you, and the causes to which you are committed by winning.
To get the process started, click here to download an information form that gives this office more information about you and the awards that you are considering. Then make an appointment with Dr. John Orr, the Director of Fellowships & Grants, to discuss your future plans and to decide what awards are appropriate for you. And remember, the earlier in your college career that you start thinking about applying for one of these awards, the better the application that you will one day submit. So get started today!

Upcoming Grants
| Fulbright/mtvU competition |
| The 2010-2011 Fulbright/mtvU competition has been reopened. The revised deadline for this competition is March 1, 2010. Notifications of Awards will be made in April 2010. Grant start and end dates will not be affected. Students who applied in October for a traditional Fulbright study, research or ETA award may not reapply for Fulbright/mtvU. The Embark Online Application system will be reopened for the Fulbright/mtvU competition. Students who previously applied for Fulbright/mtvU awards will have the option to update/revise their applications, if they choose to do so. New applicants will submit their applications and supporting documents following the standard submission procedures. If possible, we would prefer that new applicants from your institution be interviewed and a campus committee evaluation submitted with their applications. Significant revisions or updates to previously submitted applications may also be re-evaluated by the campus committee. The Fulbright/mtvU National Screening Committee members, the Fulbright Commissions and programs sponsors abroad, as well as the U.S. Department of State and J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board will be informed that a campus interview may not be possible for some institutions. Therefore, lack of a campus evaluation will not place an applicant at a disadvantage. If you have any questions or comments, please contact Walter Jackson, Manager, U.S. Student Programs, 212-984-5327 or at wjackson@iie.org. |
