Postgrad study in the USA - both fun and funded?

By: Anthony Nemecek, Director, EAS, The Fulbright Commission, London

Aside from academics, American universities have welldeveloped offices to support the international student every step of the way. Aisling adds, “The Office of International Education at CMU was very helpful, and I had extensive orientation which explained a lot for me regarding registering for classes, banking, insurance and more.” Apart from helping with course-related tasks, the international office often arranges social events throughout the academic year. “I also had a host family arranged by the OIE. My host family invited me to their home on special occasions and took me on day trips. This was very nice, as I got to meet a lot of people from the local community as a result, rather than mixing only with students.”

With a little hard work and determination, in the USA international graduate students can open up another world of opportunities for themselves. For further information, visit www.fulbright.co.uk/eas/
