Fulbright Alumni Opportunities

The British Fulbright Scholars’ Association (BFSA) is the association for all Fulbright Programme alumni in the UK. The BFSA was set up by volunteers in 1982 to bring alumni together through a programme of prestigious social events. In doing so, the Association aims to provide a forum for ex-students in the UK and to continue to develop and promote international understanding. 

All Fulbright grantees have honorary membership of the BFSA for eighteen months and are encouraged to join the Association. The BFSA offers a travel award for between one and two UK alumni every year to help fund additional trips within the US designed to extend their Fulbright experience. In addition, the BFSA also provides a mentoring programme for US postgraduate students, offering them support outside their academic environment and adding depth to their time in the UK.

The Fulbright Association, based in the US, seeks to engage current and former Fulbright exchange participants in lifelong experiences that advance international understanding through volunteer service to communities, people-to-people diplomacy and dialogue on global issues.
