2 FULBRIGHT FULL GRANTS

Language A knowledge of beginner/basic Albanian is strongly recommended for all candidates. Higher-level Albanian language ability may be needed for the successful completion of some projects.

Grant period
9 months. October through June.

Affiliation
Candidates are responsible for arranging their own host affiliation. Preliminary contacts with and letters of support from host institutions are preferred, but are not required, at the time of application.

General comment
s Fulbright students must be extremely adaptable and flexible. Living conditions and infrastructure in Albania are improving, particularly in Tirana and other larger cities. However, students should recognize that the country is still undergoing significant changes and transitions, and that medical care and other services are not up to U.S. or Western standards.

Dependents
Bringing dependents, particularly children, is not recommended.
