4 Types of Fulbright Awards
Open Study/Research English Teaching Assistant Fulbright-National Geographic Digital Storytelling Fellowship (special) Critical Language Enhancement Award (supplemental) The Fulbright Study/Research Award is the traditional award opportunity where a candidate designs a proposal for a specific country. The English Teaching Assistant (ETA) Programs place Fulbrighters in classrooms abroad to provide assistance to the local English teachers. The Fulbright-National Geographic Storytelling Fellowship provides opportunities for U.S. citizens to participate in an academic year of overseas travel and storytelling in one, two, or three countries on a globally significant theme. The Critical Language Enhancement Award (CLEA) is a feature of the U.S. Student Fulbright Program, which provides an opportunity for some Fulbright U.S. Student grantees to receive typically from three to six months of intensive language study as an enhancement to their Fulbright grants.
