Fulbright Ambassadors at your Institution!
The Fulbright Commission has recently appointed Fulbright Ireland Ambassadors at 3rd level institutions around Ireland. The aim is to have a Fulbright contact on campus so that students, researchers & lecturers can access guidance on how to approach their Fulbright applications.
The 2017-2018 Fulbright Irish Award Application Period opens on 31st August 2016. If you are considering applying, we encourage you to contact the Fulbright Ireland Ambassador at your college.
All Ambassadors are Fulbright Alumni and have experience of what is involved in undertaking the application process and of studying / working in the US. Â They will endeavour to meet with potential applicants (by appointment) and organise information sessions on campus when possible.
*Please note that Fulbright Commission Awards Managers remain the primary point of contact for application advice and all potential applicants must contact the Commission directly at awards@fulbright.ie for application guidelines once the application period opens.
