Fulbright in Croatia
The Fulbright Program is administered in Croatia by the U.S. Embassy in Zagreb in partnership with the Croatian Ministry of Science and Education and the Agency for Mobility and EU Programs.
The Fulbright Program was established in 1946 under legislation introduced by former Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. Today it is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. Government with more than 380,000 alumni from more than 160 countries.
