Gina Malagold (‘11)
Maria Boland (’10)
All were students in GEOG / LAS 321!
The U.S. Gov’t paid them to do research / teach in many countries
Fulbright scholars tend to receive many additional awards and land jobs in their field

8. Graduate School… Overseas!
Just like applying to grad school here in the U.S.; you can apply to graduate school anywhere in the world!
Most international applications are due toward the end of summer / late fall
i.e. for grad school in Fall of next year, you’d want to start looking at deadlines NOW, and probably apply before the end of the year, depending on the university.

Have a great (geographic?) experience!!!
