Are Fulbright scholarships open to African applicants?

Yes. Fulbright Foreign Student awards are administered country-by-country through U.S. embassies and cover Masters and PhD study with full tuition, stipend, insurance and travel.

Do I need GRE or GMAT for US scholarships?

Many universities have made GRE/GMAT optional or test-blind. Top STEM PhD programmes and elite MBAs still expect strong scores. Fulbright does not require GRE itself.
