  1. Application submission:

Note: Given uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, this schedule is indicative only and is subject to  change.

★ Placement of successful candidates is done by the Institute of International Education (IIE). Recommended applicants do not need to apply to U.S. institutions on their own. IIE/Fulbright Program will apply to four different institutions on their behalf, taking into consideration the candidates' competitiveness and desired field of study. If a recommended candidate has previously applied to U.S. institutions and has requested a deferral from the institution, the candidate should notify the U.S. Embassy New Delhi immediately.

  1. Important notes:
    • An applicant can apply for only one Fulbright Master's fellowship category during a competition cycle;
    • Plagiarism will lead to automatic disqualification;
    • There is no designated slot for each scholarship area;
    • Extension and transfer of VISA sponsorship will not be permitted;
    • Applications received after the deadline will not be considered; and
    • It must be noted that the candidates who get through the selection interview just get nominated for the fellowship. Therefore, the selected candidate must understand that his/her actual enrollment is subject to final confirmation.
    • The scholarship is provided under the funding of Fulbright Foreign Students Fellowship Program and all scholarship entitlements are confined to those offered by them.

  • Support Dziseldra, Empower Yourself
    Dziseldra was free for more than a year and to sustain ourselves we relied on sponsorships and advertisement revenue, including Google ads. However, the support we received fell short of covering our operating costs, let alone compensating our hard working team.

No, subscribing is not a requirement for applying to the jobs advertised on Dziseldra. You can directly contact the recruiting company and follow their application process. However, subscribers gain the benefit of accessing clear instructions on how to apply, provided on all our job posts.

If you can read this, we know you are smart enough, but please don't be pathetic enough to use the service and not be able to pay Nu. 99!!!
