ITT International Fellowship Program

The ITT International Fellowship Program was a program of grants promoting international educational student exchanges, similar to the Fulbright Program, sponsored by the International Telephone & Telegraph Corporation. The program was administered by the Institute of International Education from 1973 until the mid-1980s.

History

Between 1973 and 1982, 498 students received ITT fellowships: 244 American students who went abroad for a year of study, and 254 non-US students who came to the US, usually to pursue a master's degree. Graduate students were also awarded this fellowship from 1983-1986. During this time, the fellowship was administered in conjunction with the Fulbright Program. It was considered especially prestigious at the time, because it provided students with more funding than the Fulbright Program.

gollark: What abuses?
gollark: Even if we assume reality is not arbitrary, the decisions about which bits of it to use are.
gollark: Reality is arbitrary!
gollark: I don't like it. I'd like reactors to be simple and not have a bunch of arbitrary restrictions.
