Fulbright Israel Master's Degree Fellowship

The Fulbright Israel Master's Degree Fellowship awards up to seven grants for the 2027–2028 academic year to pursue a master's degree at an Israeli institution of higher education. The fellowship covers full tuition and provides a living stipend and limited health insurance. Awardees must also secure admission to the chosen Israeli university; the fellowship is contingent on university acceptance. The program is open to U.S. citizens who are not already resident in Israel.

Full tuition coverage, a $25,000 living stipend for the academic year, and limited health insurance.

Applicants must be U.S. citizens at the time of application and not already residing in Israel. Holders of Bachelor's or Master's degrees may apply; current Bachelor's students who will complete their degree prior to the fellowship start are eligible. Candidates who have completed all requirements for a doctoral degree by the application deadline are not eligible. Applicants without a Bachelor's may be considered on the basis of extensive professional study/experience; in creative and performing arts four years of professional study/experience meets the requirement.

Applicants must apply to the Fulbright fellowship and separately apply to the chosen Israeli university; the fellowship award is contingent upon admission to the degree program. Finalists must notify Fulbright Israel of university acceptance.
