The Office of Graduate Student Assistantships and Fellowships (OGSAF) is excited to share that four GW graduate students received a Fulbright U.S. Student Program Award for 2024-25, and two additional graduate students were selected as alternates who will be moved to finalist status if funds become available. These awards enable recipients to teach, study or conduct research abroad. This is the first year that GW candidates have been selected as scholars in Lithuania and Namibia, and for the Fulbright-Fogarty Fellowship in Public Health.
