The US-UK Fulbright Commission offers special Summer Institutes for US citizens to come to the UK. These programs provide the opportunity for undergraduates (aged over 18), with at least two years of undergraduate study left to complete, to come to the UK on a three, four, five or six week academic and cultural program.
There are nine Summer Programs available for US students in 2015. The Summer Institute will cover the majority of the participant costs: round-trip airfare from the US to the UK, tuition and fees at the University, social programs, and room and board.
The application deadline is February 26 or March 5, 2015. More information, including descriptions of the nine institutes, can be found on the program website at www.fulbright.org.uk/fulbright-awards/exchanges-to-the-uk/undergraduates.
The National and International Scholarships Program is here to assist with your application! Make an appointment with them at topscholars@illinois.edu to discuss this unique opportunity and get started on your materials.
