The Fulbright program’s mission is to facilitate educational and cultural exchange, and they aim to accomplish that by sending abroad a cohort of grantees that represents America’s rich diversity (you might enjoy viewing [and sharing!] this video called “I am Fulbright”). As such, it is our mission to inform the Penn community about Fulbright opportunities, as well as the availability of CURF support! Thank you so much for helping us to do so.
