August 15 “Intent to Apply” Deadline for Fulbright Applicants

Yes, August 15 is the day! If you’re applying for a Fulbright grant through Middlebury (seniors and alumni welcome!), we STRONGLY encourage you to submit draft materials by this deadline. Why do this? Two reasons: we guarantee that we will provide feedback on your essays and application and we’ll provide you with a nice pdf of your official transcript for your application. You can still apply if you miss this deadline, but we can’t guarantee the feedback or the transcript.

How do you submit your materials? You will do this through Middlebury Apply . You will need to have submitted a registration and Fulbright preliminary application to do this. If you need instructions, visit go/fulbright . Contact fellowships@middlebury.edu with questions!
