With 17 recipients for the 2020-2021 school year, UT ranked highest in the SEC for the number of students accepted into the Fulbright Program and placed higher on the list of top Fulbright producing institutions than several Ivy League universities.Â
The Fulbright, a prestigious scholarship funded by the U.S. Department of State, sends around 2,200 U.S. students to over 140 countries each year in order to do research or teach English with the goal of cultural exchange and empathy building.Â
The success that UT students have in applying not only to the Fulbright, but to other top scholarships including the Rhodes Scholarship and the Goldwater Scholarship, is due in large part to the Office of Undergraduate Research and Fellowships, which works with applicants over the course of many months to refine their applications through in-depth conversations, strategic plans and essay revisions.Â
