* The Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers fellowships for U.S. graduating college seniors, graduate students, young professionals, and artists to research, study, or teach English abroad for one academic year. The program facilitates cultural exchange through direct interaction on an individual basis in the classroom, field, home, and in routine tasks, allowing the grantee to gain an appreciation of others' viewpoints and beliefs, the way they do things, and the way they think. The application period opens in the spring of each year.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Berkey|first=Ayden|date=October 30, 2020|title=Fulbright U.S. Student Program|url=https://accessscholarships.com/scholarship/fulbright-u-s-student-program|website=Access Scholarships}}</ref> Since the inaugural class in 1949, [[Harvard University|Harvard]], [[Yale]], [[University of California, Berkeley|Berkeley]], [[Columbia University in the City of New York|Columbia]], and [[University of Michigan|Michigan]] have been the top producers of U.S. Student Program scholars.
