Overview
Fulbright support for master's students at Icelandic universities undertaking one academic year of exchange study in the United States in 2027/2028.
Complete grant details
The current official page states a grant amount of 10,000 for the one-academic-year exchange award but does not label the currency on the award line, so this record does not assign a currency. Applicants should indicate whether a tuition-waiver agreement exists between their Icelandic and U.S. institutions.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must be Icelandic citizens currently enrolled in a master's programme at an Icelandic university and must not hold U.S. citizenship or a U.S. green card. U.S. institutional admission is not required at application. All fields are eligible except medicine and other study involving unsupervised patient interaction.
Tips for this grant
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
Verification notes
Verified against the current Fulbright Commission Iceland exchange call. The 14 October 2026 deadline has no published closing time. The page states the award amount as 10,000 but does not identify the currency in that award line; no currency is inferred.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
