AAG's New Home

Welcome to the new resource for Lewis & Clark's Academic Awards & Grants Program! Here you will find information on the various fellowship and scholarship opportunities available to undergraduate and graduate students.

As we are currently transitioning from the previous LC webpage, you will need to navigate between both pages in order to find some information. However, once transitioning is complete, http://academicawardsgrants.blogspot.com will serve as the resource for detailed information about these fellowships and scholarships.

Leave a posting or comment for us to let us know how are doing and what we can do to improve this resource for you. Additionally, follow us on Facebook and on Twitter.

Best,
Tamara Ko

Fulbright Fellowship

The US Congress created the Fulbright Program to foster mutual understanding among nations through educational and cultural exchanges. Recipients apply for specific programs, which may include university course work, independent research, or other special projects.

  • Eligibility: Seniors and recent graduate are invited to apply. In some countries, applicants must have sufficient proficiency in the written and spoken language of the host country to communicate with the people and to carry out the proposed study.
  • Selection Process: Students must submit applications first to the L&C faculty representative. Applicants put forward by the College pass through the National Screening Committee to the supervising agencies abroad. Final selections are made by the Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board.
  • Deadline: The on-campus deadline is mid-October, with applications transmitted to Fulbright approximately ten days later.
  • Faculty Representative: Deborah Heath, Department of Sociology and Anthropology
  • Website: www.iie.org/fulbright
