International Fulbright Students


ⓘ

On July 17, 2026, DHS published a final rule establishing a fixed time period of admission and an extension of stay procedure for J exchange visitors. This rule was expected to be effective on September 15, 2026, but a preliminary injunction issued on September 14 has delayed its implementation. If it comes into effect, it will impact several aspects of the J-visa program regulations. EVS is following this matter closely.

Fulbright students come to the University of Florida from abroad to pursue their educational goals. They apply in their home country, and their entry arrangements are supervised by AMIDEAST and Foreign Fulbright Online webpage.

Notification of award to an international Fulbright student is sent to Dr. Claire Anumba at canumba@ufic.ufl.edu.

All international Fulbright students must check-in at the University of Florida International Center through the International Student Services office located in 1765 Stadium Road, Suite 170 Hub, with Dr. Claire Anumba at canumba@ufic.ufl.edu.

The UF Graduate School assists UF Colleges and Departments with funding collaboration as well as communication with the Fulbright agencies. For more information email gradfulbright@22.ufl.edu.
