The Fulbright-LUT University Graduate Award is a Fulbright-funded scholarship for U.S. students to pursue a full Master’s degree at LUT University in Finland. The award provides a monthly grant, a travel allowance, a residence permit allowance, supplemental accident and sickness benefits and a tuition scholarship from LUT University. Recipients are eligible for participation in certain Fulbright Finland Foundation activities and additional discretionary grants and funding opportunities.

Monthly grant (EUR 1,000 for nine months), travel award (USD 1,600), residence permit allowance, supplemental accident and sickness benefit, tuition scholarship covering EUR 13,500 annual fee, eligibility for subsidized Fulbright summer school, access to alumni network and potential additional travel or endowment grants.

The competition is open to U.S. students who hold a minimum Bachelor's degree; academically talented graduating seniors may apply before the degree is conferred. The grant is aimed primarily at students wishing to complete a full Master’s degree at LUT University; academically talented doctoral students and Master’s exchange (non-degree) students will also be considered.

Dual application: applicants must enter the Fulbright U.S. Student competition and separately apply for admission to LUT University according to the university's application procedures. Final selections are made by the Fulbright Finland Foundation.
