Prestigious National Scholarship Program

The Fulbright U.S. Student Program is a highly competitive international exchange program that fosters cultural understanding and mutual solutions to global concerns. We have a group of caring faculty who are prepared to equip students to apply to prestigious programs, we list some examples below.

About

Since the award was established in 1946 under legislation introduced by then-Senator J. William Fulbright, its alumni have achieved distinction in many fields, including 57 who have been awarded the Nobel Prize, 82 who have received Pulitzer Prizes, and 37 who have served as head of state.

Fulbright Awards are granted on the basis of academic and professional achievement as well as a record of service and leadership potential.

PBA students become Fulbright finalists after a competitive application process, aided by the University’s Prestigious National Scholarship Program.
