Please follow the following step by step application procedure to apply for Fulbright scholarship
2023:

(1) Make Online Application

To apply to Fulbright program you need to assemble a variety of materials to help the USEFP
assess your qualifications. All materials must be submitted with your application.

(2) Prepare Academic Transcripts and Degrees

All transcripts and degrees from a 4-year undergraduate degree or its equivalent – equivalent
programs include international three-year bachelor programs or ACCA. PhD applicants must
also submit their MPhil or MS degrees and transcripts. You can also apply while in your final
year of undergraduate studies provided that you get your degree by December this year.

The USEFP looks at your transcripts from a holistic perspective – not just your GPA. They take
into account where you went for your education, the courses that you took and your performance
in individual courses. They also account for the fact that different universities have different
grading systems. There is no minimum GPA to apply, although most successful Fulbright
students have strong undergraduate records. Undergraduate academics are just one factor the
Fulbright panel uses to evaluate a candidate.

(3) Take GRE General Test and TOFEL

When submitting your application, you may report the unofficial GRE score given on the day of
the test, or your official score if you have received it. Every applicant must request that ETS send
an official score report directly to USEFP using the code 9388. GRE general (international) test
scores are required at the time of application. A decent score for Engineering and Sciences on the
GRE is 315+ and that for other fields is 310+. GRE subject test is not required.

The minimum GRE score required to apply for the Fulbright is 138 for verbal and 136 for
quantitative. But generally, accepted applicants have a GRE score in the upper percentiles. If you
take the GRE test multiple times, you may report your best score, and Fulbright will only look at
that score. TOEFL is NOT required at the time of the application submissions. You will have to
take the TOEFL exam if you are called for an interview. IELTS is not acceptable.

(4) Prepare Two Essays

There are two essays for the Fulbright application. Each essay must be written in the space
provided in the application form, which approximates to 800 words. Don’t over craft your
essays; just write in a clear language so that the Fulbright panel that doesn’t know your world
can understand you better. Before starting the essays you are going to need to figure out a
marketing strategy for yourself. Successful applicants generally take 4-6 weeks writing and
perfecting their essays.

(5) Three Recommendation letters are required

You will need to have three recommendations submitted with your application by the application
deadline. You can have 3 academic reference letters, or 2 academic and 1 professional or 2
professional and 1 academic. In other words, 1 academic reference letter is a must. Your referees
need to fill the reference forms given in the application package and then sign, stamp and seal
them in an envelope. Once you submit your online application your referees will be sent an
online form via email.

Also Apply for DAAD Scholarship

There is no set formula for “who should write your references”. Sometimes it is also not possible
to ask your employer to write your recommendation – USEFP does not want to jeopardize your
current position for the application process. Just find people who know you well enough to
answer them. It can be a former employer, teacher or researcher.

(6) Prepare Academic Resume

A current and most up-to-date resume should be added to the space provided on the application
form. You do not need to have it in any special format. Please read this helpful article on How to
make wining Academic CV (Resume) for Scholarship?

(7) Submit Online Application

There is no application fee for the Fulbright program. Applications must be submitted online.

(8) Interview

After your written application has been submitted and reviewed, you may be invited to a panel
interview. Interview decisions are made by mid-September and interviews are conducted in
October. If you do not hear from USEFP by October it automatically implies that you have not
been selected. The interview is a positive indicator of selection, but is not a guarantee of
admission. Interviews are 15 to 30 minutes and are conducted by a panel of 4 people. You have
to take your TOEFL registration slip with you on the day of the interview and it is not mandatory
to have taken the TOEFL exam by the interview date.

It is important to visit the official website (link found below) and the country specific
websites for detailed information on how to apply for this scholarship.

Fulbright Scholarship 2022-2023 deadline varies per country. But generally it is between
February to October annually.
