Fulbright Network at UCLA

Being a Fulbrighter means being part of an international educational exchange program that aims to foster mutual understanding between countries, cultures, and people. The Fulbright Network at UCLA strives to be a community that offers friendship, support, and positive experiences for individuals far from their home countries. We welcome any individual on campus--whether you are far from home, or whether you seek to mingle with people with backgrounds different than your own--to join our communal activities and share your intellectual and cultural journey with us. First and foremost, we recognize the importance of human connections in academic success. The Fulbright Network therefore seeks to create opportunities where long-lasting friendships can blossom. We hope it will be a site for intellectual exchange, where individuals can get a deeper appreciation of diverse perspectives. We also strive to support Fulbrighters with the often overwhelming logistics involved with moving to a new country. As a community, we can navigate the bumpy yet transformative journey we embarked on together. The Fulbright Network hopes to be a resource and make a positive impact on Fulbrighters’ new and exciting chapter in the United States.
