Fulbright Commission Turkey

The Turkish Fulbright Commission or in other words, the Commission for Educational Exchange between the United States and Turkey, was established by a binational agreement signed between Turkey and the United States in 1949. The Commission started its activities in accordance with Law No. 5596 enacted by the Turkish Parliament on March 13, 1950.

The Commission supports Turkish and American graduate students, faculty members, teachers, artists and professionals through grants which include travel and living expenses. It also offers educational advising for Turkish students wishing to study in the U.S.A. Our Commission was founded to develop mutual understanding between the Turkish and American people through educational and cultural exchange.
