鈥満卟菅芯克 students are perennially competitive for U.S. Student Fulbright awards. Across all disciplines, our top students have solid academic preparation, deep community support and a dizzying array of extra- and co-curriculars that they use to pour into applications,鈥 said Ryan Lewis, national fellowships advisor at Mount Holyoke. 鈥淚t's a real joy and pleasure to help our students because I always learn so much from them!鈥
鈥淲e congratulate the colleges and universities we are honoring as 2021-2022 Fulbright Top Producing Institutions and are especially delighted to celebrate the institutions that achieved this distinction for the first time this year. These institutions reflect the geographic and institutional diversity of higher education in the United States, and include Minority-Serving Institutions,鈥 said Ethan Rosenzweig, deputy assistant secretary of state for academic programs in the U.S. Department of State鈥檚 Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. 鈥淲e thank the leadership of these institutions for supporting their faculty advisors and administrators, who are instrumental in guiding their students through the Fulbright application process. We know that U.S. institutions benefit from having their students represent their campus overseas, which often fosters reciprocal exchanges that in turn help further internationalize U.S. campuses.鈥
The Fulbright competition is administered at 含羞草研究所 through the Office of Student Success and Advising.
