The Fulbright Finland Foundation programs support academically high-achieving students, researchers and professionals of different fields. In addition to academic skills, the grantee has to have different types of personal characteristics that are in line with the nature of the grant program. The Foundation is looking for grantees to represent Finland in the U.S. They should be able to create networks and build bridges between these two countries.
The Fulbright Finland Foundation's grant programs offer its participants a variety of benefits in addition to the grant. The additional benefits vary between grant programs. They include, for example, orientation sessions organized in Finland before the departure, personal advice services, alumni support network, university placement service, free U.S. visa for grantees and accompanying family members, seminars and other professional and networking events in the U.S., as well as an access to the valued, worldwide Fulbright network.
