FULBRIGHT U.S. STUDENT PROGRAM (http://us.fulbrightonline.org/home.html).

This program is designed to give students (grad, professional, undergrad) and alumni opportunities to pursue research, graduate study, artistic endeavors, or English teaching experience in over 155 nations worldwide during one academic year.

The application cycle for the 2013-2014 Fulbright U.S. Student competition will open on May 1, 2012. The campus deadline for applications is September 12, 2012.

It may seem early to think about this, but it’s smart to start now—you’ll use the whole summer!   Even if you’re not sure this is something that you want to do, we suggest you attend an information session or webinar to learn more.
