I studied abroad for 6 months, but it was a few years ago. Can I apply for a Fulbright to study in that same country?
You can still apply for a country you already have lived or studied in but preference is given to applicants who have never been to the country for which they apply. However, undergraduate study abroad experiences do not make applicants less competitive. In fact, some study abroad experience or limited work experience in the country may increase applicants chances because of their ability to speak the language and adapt to the culture. This is especially true for countries where languages are not normally spoken in the U.S. You might be ineligible to apply for a Fulbright grant. if you currently reside in the destination country. See the description of the specific host country in the Fulbright handbook or website for more information.
