NSEP Graduate International Fellowships encourage U.S. graduate students to add an international dimension to their curricula. Students already enrolled in internationally-oriented programs are encouraged to intensify their study of areas, languages, and cultures.
Fellowships provide support for overseas or domestic study, or a combination of both.
You must be enrolled at an accredited U.S. institution of higher education located within the United States and be in the process of pursuing a graduate degree at the time the award is made. Universities will usually allow students to maintain enrollment while they are abroad pursuing curricula outside the standard requirements. Please consult with your campus representative or academic advisor for more detailed information on the specific requirements at your university. If you are not currently enrolled but are applying to graduate school, you may apply for an NSEP Fellowship. In addition, if you are a graduating senior and applying to graduate school, you are eligible for the program.
