Fulbright/University of St Andrews Award

The Fulbright/University of St Andrews Award covers a postgraduate degree programme at Masters or research level (including PhD, MPhil, MLitt, et al.) for up to four years in any discipline. Founded in the 15th century, the University of St Andrews is Scotland's first university and the third oldest in the English-speaking world. The university is one of Europe's most research-intensive seats of learning and one of the top-rated universities in Europe for research and teaching quality. The award covers tuition fees and living stipend for the duration of the degree program, though Fulbright grant benefits (including enrichment events, travel stipends, and official Fulbright support) are provided for the first 10-month academic year only. After the first year, the grantee becomes a Fulbright alum but continues their course of study at the University of St Andrews with tuition fees and monthly stipend covered. This partnership award provides an exceptional opportunity for U.S. graduate students to pursue advanced study at one of the UK's most prestigious universities while engaging with the vibrant academic and cultural community in Scotland.
