Funding package

What the opportunity covers

Fulbright U.S. Student grants include a host-country living stipend, accident and sickness health benefits and programme support; international travel applies to Post-country grants and country-specific commissions may provide different or additional benefits. Applicants must review the specific country award description for exact financial terms.

Not mentioned by the official source

  • Mandatory fees
  • Tuition
  • Accommodation
  • Health insurance

These costs are not addressed in the funding information captured from the provider. That does not mean they are excluded — it means nobody has stated either way. Budget for them, and confirm on the official source.
