Fulbright U.S. Student Grant Information Session

Former Fulbright grantees Nicole Jefferson and David Hoffman are leading an information session about the U.S. Student Fulbright Program. Jefferson holds bachelor's and master's degrees from MSU and currently serves as an English as a Second Language instructor in Mexico City, Mexico. Hoffman, who serves as MSU's Fulbright program administrator, is an associate professor in the Department of Anthropology and Middle Eastern Cultures. Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, the Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers fellowships abroad for one academic year to graduating college seniors, graduate students, young professionals, scientists and artists. Program participants pursue graduate or professional study, advanced research or English teaching in elementary and secondary schools or universities. Each year, approximately 1,600 Americans traveling to more than 140 countries receive support from the Fulbright U.S. Student Program.
