Required format of applications:
• Application forms must be completed in full. Please do not reformat the application.
• Only typed applications will be considered; no handwritten applications will be accepted.
• Under 4.3 in the application, you are asked to list three American universities where you would like to study. Please give this careful consideration and conduct on-line research on institutions that could fulfill your academic needs. There are thousands of institutions of higher education in the United States; please show evidence that the institutions listed are appropriate for your course of studies. You may include brief background information on why a specific institution suits your needs. The U.S. Consulates in Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town have professional educational advisors who are available to counsel students about study in the United States. Please see the U.S. Embassy website for more information about these services (http://southafrica.usembassy.gov).
• Please note the importance of the following two sections: Study Objectives and Narrative Statement. These two essays are key to helping the selection panels and, eventually, the admissions offices of U.S. universities assess your qualifications and personal qualities. Please use these sections as an opportunity to let the selection panels get to know you and understand what motivates you to study in the United States.
Selection procedures:
• All applications are carefully reviewed by the Fulbright Regional Selection Committees, after which the most qualified applicants in each region will be invited for personal interviews.
Closing date for applications:
The closing date for applications is APRIL 20, 2010. The deadline for all documents (applications, transcripts and reference letters) is non-negotiable. Applicants are responsible for ensuring that applications are complete and that all supporting documents are received by the closing date.
