gather with GCPA-Connecting Students with International Education: What Can We Learn from Fulbright Top-Producing Institutions?

thursday, 19 february 2026 | 12:00-2:00pm ET

In a recent article “On the Urgency of Restoring and Improving the Fulbright Program” researchers Lally, Blanco, and Flint find that many of the benefits of the Fulbright Program, the U.S.’ premier international exchange program, are concentrated at the same institutions year over year. This webinar explores recent data from the Fulbright Program’s top-producing institutions and provides practical recommendations for connecting students to international education programs across institutional types. This webinar is presented by the Georgia Chapter of ACPA (GCPA).

As a result of participating in this webinar, participants will:

• Become familiar with the Fulbright top-producing institution program
• Learn key insights from recent Fulbright Program data on top-producing institutions
• Identify strategies for supporting students interested in seeking Fulbright grants
