UK Awards Programme
The UK Fulbright Awards Programme offers a wide range of exchange opportunities to UK citizens (regardless of where they reside) in three main categories:
- Postgraduate Student Awards to pursue a postgraduate degree or attend a US university as a 'special student researcher' in any subject,
- Scholars and Fellows Awards for academics and professionals to lecture, study and/or conduct research in the US, and
- Special Programmes for short stays or for younger scholars.
Non-UK citizens are required to apply in their country of citizenship, even if they are resident in the UK.
The Commission selects scholars through a rigorous application and interview process throughout the year. Typical grants include a maintenance allowance and a contribution towards tuition fees where applicable. Fulbright scholars receive a high level of support ranging from visa processing and health insurance to a comprehensive pre-departure orientation and re-entry session. Postgraduate student grantees also receive additional US-based support from the Institute of International Education and distinguished scholars and fellows from the Council for the International Exchange of Scholars.
