They hit submit!

This year seven seniors, three recent alumni and three current graduate students successfully completed the campus process for submitting a Fulbright US Student Program application. The process itself is rigorous and provides an opportunity to refine their personal narrative and professional aspirations, which will translate into stronger graduate school and grant applications in the future. If successful, they will be funded to spend the 2023-2024 academic year abroad fulfilling the study, research or English teaching assistantship which they have proposed.

Many thanks to Felicia Page, Coordinator of the Graduate Writing Center, who provided an excellent summer workshop experience for the graduate student applicants this summer.  Many thanks also to those who served as interview panelists and to the 40+ letter writers who supported for this incredible crew of Rhody Rams along the way!  We are rooting for you all!
