United States Fulbright Scholarships

12/9/2014

 
There are scholarships opportunities for international students from some selected Pacific Islands countries. The scholarship is called  William Fulbright Graduate Scholarship Program for citizens of Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu.  The scholarship pays for up to two years of graduate study in the United States. 

One Fulbright scholarship recipient will be chosen for his or her academic merit and leadership potential.  Only online applications will be accepted this application cycle. 

The successful candidate will be able to earn a Master of Arts (MA), Master of Science (MS), Master of Public Administration (MPA), or a Master of Law (LLM) degree.  Scholarship recipients receive a tuition grant for their coursework and a monthly stipend to cover living expenses at their host institution.  Recipients also receive roundtrip transportation and health benefits.  In addition, recipients may also attend special enrichment activities throughout their program.  These activities are excellent opportunities to network with fellow international Fulbright recipients and to interact with prominent Americans across a range of professional fields.  

About the J. William Fulbright Program

The J. William Fulbright Program is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries.  In addition to receiving the prestigious Fulbright Scholarship, recipients will also become part of the global network of renowned Fulbright Alumni who have achieved distinction in countless fields including government, science, the arts, and business:

Forty four Fulbright alumni from 12 countries have been awarded the Nobel Prize
28 alumni are MacArthur Foundation Fellows
81 alumni have received Pulitzer Prizes
Twenty nine Fulbright alumni have served as heads of state or government
