2022 Fulbright UK Summer Institutes

 Fulbright UK Summer Institutes for Freshmen and Sophomores (U.S. citizens)

The US-UK Fulbright Commission offers special Summer Institutes for U.S. citizens to study in the UK. These expenses-paid summer programs provide the opportunity for U.S. undergraduates (U.S. citizens, aged over 18, see eligibility details below), with at least two years of undergraduate study left to complete, to come to participate in a three or four week academic and cultural summer program.

Participants in these programs will get the opportunity to experience an exciting academic program at a highly regarded UK University, explore the culture, heritage and history of the UK and develop their academic ability by improving presentation, research and communication skills.

Eligibility:
  • Applicants must be U.S. Citizens;
  • have a GPA of 3.7 or higher
  • be 18 or older; 
  • be a second or first year student, and/or have at least two years of undergraduate study remaining after the Institute finishes;
  • cannot have spent more than 4 weeks outside the U.S. in the last 5 years. Exceptions are made for refugees and/or students from a different cultural background who have spent time abroad due to family emergencies.
The Summer Institutes will cover the majority of participant costs. This includes round-trip airfare from the US to the UK, tuition and fees at the host university/institution, accommodation and meals and in some cases a small daily allowance. 
Participating 2022 Summer Institutes are:
