Current Nomination Application
Nominations for the Fulbright Award for the 2024 and 2025 Fulbright Foreign Student Program application cycle will open on September 1, 2023 and close on April 14th, 2024.
What is the Fulbright Scholarship?
Fulbright grantees who have applied through the U via Fulbright are rarely fully funded. To offset these costs, the University of Utah offers a prestigious 50% tuition scholarship exclusively for incoming Fulbright grantees participating in the Fulbright Foreign Student Program (FFSP) and Foreign Language training assistant Program (FLTA).
These tuition scholarships are available for rolling applications from September 1st until April 14th, 2024.
To be eligible for consideration, unit heads (including Deans, Directors, or Department Heads) or their authorized representatives must submit the following form and nominate a potential Fulbright applicant to their department.
The earlier a student can be nominated, the better! Awards are given out on a first-come, first-served basis.

- Applied directly to tuition/student fees on the student’s balance the month before classes begin.
