The Argentine Fulbright Program offers grants to U.S. citizens who want to spend a period of time in Argentina under the auspices of any of the grant programs detailed below.
The Argentine academic year runs from March to July and from August to December. When applicable, grantees are strongly encouraged to carry out the grants during this period.
Applications are restricted to U.S. citizens.

Grants are awarded on a highly competitive basis, with particular stress placed on academic and professional excellence, leadership potential and willingness to share ideas and experiences. One of the priorities of the Fulbright Program is to offer awards to candidates who have not had a Fulbright grant before.

Recruitment of U.S. candidates lies in the hands of two independent U.S. institutions hired by the U.S. Department of State for this purpose: the Council for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES) and the Institute of International Education (IIE), both of which receive support from qualified juries during the selection process. Grantees' final approval is the responsibility of the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board, whose decisions are final.
