Step 1
Contact your country's binational Fulbright commission to obtain an application and information on eligibility criteria. Or, if your country doesn't have a binational commission, contact the U.S. embassy in your country.
-
Step 2
Make sure you fit the criteria. Though they differ from country to country, you must at least be a citizen of a country other than the United States at the time of application.
-
Step 3
Think precisely about what sort of program you'd like to design for yourself and about how you'd describe the project to the funding committee.
-
Step 4
Consider designing your program around the theme of mutual understanding between nations, as this is what the fellowship exists to promote.
-
Step 5
Notify professors, former employers, etc., well ahead of time for any letters you need from them.
-
Step 6
Send in all the materials before the deadline. Again, dates vary by country, but apply well before the application deadline to avoid the risk of missing it.
