Recipients receive round-trip travel, tuition, living expenses, books, and a language orientation course when necessary. The Fulbright offers so many options that students can feel overwhelmed by the brochure. Please feel free to consult with Lauren Stolper who acts as Caltech's Fulbright Advisor if you need any assistance whatsoever in clarifying the Fulbright options. Teaching assistantships are also available through the Fulbright program. Several countries seek individuals to teach science, math, or English.
Grants are also available in the performing arts.
Again, the Fulbright brochure or the fellowship advisor can help you find out about these grants. It should be noted that no support is available for spouses. Up to five Fulbright Cambridge Research Scholarships will allow outstanding students to pursue a course of research and study leading to the Ph.D. at the University of Cambridge. The awards are tenable for up to three years. Round-trip travel from the U.S., fees, tuition, and a living allowance are paid.
