Creative Writers, Teachers of ESL, and Instructional Leaders: Is it time to take the next step? Are you ready for a new adventure — and the experience of a lifetime? Why not apply for a Fulbright grant to spend a year abroad? The 2025-26 application cycle is now open. Master’s degree students with backgrounds in English, Education, and Creative Writing are strongly encouraged to apply!<\/p>\n

The\u00a0U.S. Fulbright Student Program<\/a> <\/strong>offers incredible opportunities for early career professionals of any age<\/span> to jumpstart their careers by teaching English abroad for one academic year – <\/span>all expenses paid<\/i>. As a Fulbright ETA (English Teaching Assistant<\/strong>)<\/a> you would be assisting the local English teacher–not in charge of the ESL program itself. In fact, you do not need ESL training or teaching experience, although that would be a plus. Imagine being able to sit down and write, vlog, or blog after work immersed in a new culture!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Study\/Research<\/a><\/strong> grants are also available to students who design their own projects, such as a writing a novel or conducting a research project. These grantees typically work with advisers at foreign universities or other institutes of higher education in approximately 140 countries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

If you are ready for that next step, start your application by visiting https:\/\/us.fulbrightonline.org<\/a> and clicking “Fulbright Online Application” under the Applicants dropdown. <\/span><\/i>Wilkes Campus Deadline: September 1, 2024; National Deadline: October 8, 2024.<\/p>\n
