Dr. Buse Gonul
"Sometimes, we may underestimate our project or how prepared we are. It is important to be persistent and not give up if you don't get the grant on your first application. I was awarded a Fulbright grant for the second time!"
Dr. Matthew Thomann
"Start early! I think it’s particularly important to reach out to academic units you’re hoping to partner with as soon as possible. While many university faculty/staff will be open – and even excited – about the opportunity to host a Fulbright scholar, there are many factors they may need to consider."
Dr. Colleen O'Neal
"Doing a Fulbright Scholar Award is life-changing. When you first consider applying for one, it can seem daunting to make it happen...In the end, my children thrived...and my department and college at UMD offered great support for my going abroad for so long."
