Offered by Fulbright Nehru Master’s
This cycle has closed. The date shown is the last one we captured. Most of these schemes reopen at roughly the same point each year, so this page is still worth bookmarking — but check the official link before planning around it.
The Fulbright Nehru Master’s Fellowships support Indian students who want to earn a master’s degree at a U.S. university. It is for people with leadership experience, a U.S. bachelor’s-equivalent degree, and at least three years of professional work. Fellowships last up to two years and cover specific fields such as Economics, Environmental Science, Higher Education Administration, International Affairs, and others.
The program aims to develop future leaders who will return to India and contribute to its development.
Applicants must hold the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor’s degree and have at least three years of full-time professional work experience. They should demonstrate leadership potential and a commitment to return to India after completing the degree. The fellowship is open to candidates from all backgrounds, without a minimum percentage requirement.
Preference is given to applicants who have not studied or lived in the U.S. for more than six months.
Apply online through the United States-India Educational Foundation (USIEF) portal before the published deadline. Prepare academic transcripts, three letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, and a leadership essay. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for an interview.
