Foreign Language Evaluations

The role of a Fulbright faculty mentor is to provide advice on the feasibility of your proposed project.  Ideally, a mentor has expertise in your academic field and/or host country and is willing meet to review your Statement of Grant Purpose and Personal Statement to provide feedback. Mentor/mentee roles are created informally and are not required to apply for the Fulbright U.S. Student Program through USC, but are strongly encouraged.

The faculty listed below are willing to be contacted to mentor USC Fulbright applicants.  We recommend that you reach out to a mentor once you have a working draft of your statements. Applicants are also welcome to work with mentors not listed here.  Other ways to find a mentor include:
