On Wednesday, June 19 and Thursday, June 20, pre-departure orientation sessions took place at the Fulbright Foundation for departing grantees of the Students and Scholars categories. Grantees were invited for presentations, talks and discussions on practical issues such as visa issuance, border and customs patrol, cultural adjustment, banking and finance, travel arrangements, housing, health insurance, emergencies and more. Fulbright alumni joined the conversations to talk about their U.S. Fulbright experience and offer advise to the new Fulbrighters.
