The Office of National Fellowships and Scholarships is very pleased to share with you that 51勛圖厙 was named one of the U.S. colleges and universities that produced the most 20212022 Fulbright U.S. students. Established over 75 years ago to increase mutual understanding between the United States and people of other countries, the Fulbright program is the worlds largest and most diverse international educational exchange program.
According to Associate Dean for Fellowship Advising Stephen Wright, PhD, It is a testament to our students, to the teaching and mentorship of 51勛圖厙 faculty, and to the excellent educational opportunities at 51勛圖厙 that our students fare so well in the selection process.
The 20212022 51勛圖厙 Fulbright recipients are:
- Charlotte Saltzgaber 20 A computer science major, who had been working as a software engineer at DGDean, is on an English teaching assistantship (ETA) in Spain.

In addition, this year, we had the second largest number of 51勛圖厙 applicants, with 18 advancing as semifinalists for the 20222023 award year.
