Note: Data cover confirmed recipients for the 2017-18 academic year and are current as of February 9, 2018. Categories are based on the 2015 Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. The Fulbright Scholar Program sponsors American and foreign participants for exchanges in the sciences, academe, public service, the arts, and other areas to promote mutual understanding between Americans and people of other countries. The Fulbright U.S. Student Program provides grants for individually designed study or research programs, or English-teaching-assistant programs, in many foreign countries. The Fulbright Program is a program of the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. More data can be found at topproducing.fulbrightonline.org.

Correction (2/19/2018, 6:20 p.m.): The original version of this table incorrectly identified Augsburg University as Augsburg College. Augsburg changed its name from “College” to “University” last September. The name has been corrected.

Correction (2/20/2018, 5:42 p.m.): The original version of this table gave incorrect numbers of Fulbright students for two institutions. The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign had 13 students, not 12, and Pennsylvania State University at University Park had 11, not 10. The numbers have been corrected.

Correction (5/14/2018, 5:23 p.m.): The original version of this table omitted Colburn School, a special-focus institution, which had one Fulbright student. It has been added.
