FLTA – Resources

In addition to this website, the following resources are available for your reference:

  • The Current Fulbrighters section of Fulbright Online is the FLTAs’ primary source of information about the FLTA Program. If you do not have the host institution login credentials, contact the appropriate IIE advisor and they will be happy to share.  
  • The FLTA Toolkit: Preparing for Your FLTA Program is designed to help FLTAs prepare for their FLTA program. It provides information on travel to the U.S., life in the host community, housing, staying healthy, finances, culture shock, and networking. It also includes a Communication Checklist of topics that they should discuss with you before they depart for the U.S. You may find it useful to review this resource as well. This toolkit is stored in ForeignFulbrightOnline.org under Current Fulbrighters> Pre-Arrival> Prepare for Your FLTA Program.

  • The IIE advisors are responsible for supporting you and the FLTAs during the year. See Working with the IIE Advisor in above for details on their role.
