Fulbright participation is just one reflection of UH’s broader goal to increase the school’s global reach, and also an indicator of the university’s success, said Michael Pelletier, executive director of the UH Institute for Global Engagement. UH’s participation has skyrocketed in the past few years: Thirty-six students have earned grants since 2018, which is one more student than in the previous 51 years combined, according to the university. Ten UH graduates and recent alumni received grants for the 2021-2022 academic year alone.
“There’s always been fertile ground for University of Houston to have a lot of students apply for the Fulbright program and have competitive applicants, because we are one of the most diverse campuses in the country,” Rayder said.
