THE POSTGRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS AND SCHOLARSHIPS PROGRAM IS SPONSORING A 
SERIES OF SUMMER INFORMATION SESSIONS ON:


APPLYING FOR A FULBRIGHT GRANT FOR U.S. STUDENTS


The Fulbright Program for U.S. Students provides an excellent opportunity
for Mason seniors, graduate students, and recent alumni  to spend
an academic year in one of over 140 countries with full funding.   Over ten
Mason students from a wide variety of academic disciplines have been 
awarded Fulbright grants in the past few years.

The current application cycle provides funding for the 2010-2011 academic
year.  This particular program is limited to U.S. citizens, but there is 
no age limit.  Those who are (or soon will be) recent college graduates 
are particularly encouraged to consider applying for the English Teaching  
Assistantship (ETA) program, which does not necessarily require second 
language proficiency.  Students can undertake a range of options and 
projects, including academic study, field research, or work with a non-
governmental agency. Mason’s internal application deadline is September 
15th.  Potential applicants are strongly encouraged to review the 
Fulbright Program website prior to the session they attend.

Students and alumni intending to apply for a Fulbright in early Fall 2009 
need to inform Dr. Moloney of their plans by July 1st.
