The Killam Fellowship Program is a Fulbright award for undergraduate students to spend one or two semesters at a university in Canada, along with a $6,000/semester cash award!
Students from universities in the United States have the opportunity to spend up to a full academic year as an exchange student at one of the participating universities in Canada, participating in the program as a direct exchange student (registering at their home university, paying their home fees, and attending the host university as an exchange visitor).
Participation in the Killam Program comes with a lot of great perks! In addition to the $6,000 US per semester cash prize ($12,000 for a full academic year), and the health benefit plan, all Fellows are eligible to apply for a mobility grant, a Killam Community Action Initiative grant, and the Fulbright Canada Alumni Internship Program. Grantees can also participate in the Local Ambassador Program that matches current grantees with Killam alumni.
Apply by December 15, 2023 -- UW students will review their applications with Marion Ferguson, Exchange Programs Manager for the Canadian Studies Center, before submitting to the Killam Program.
