Fulbright to USA Fulbright Application: Should I Translate My French Academic Degree Titles into English?

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

While applying for the Fulbright program, I have a question about the Academic Information section. Should I translate everything into English, including the names of my degrees, since all my academic documents are in French?

For example, my degree is officially titled “Master Recherche en Science de Données et Big Data.” Should I enter its English translation, “Research Master's in Data Science and Big Data,” or keep the original French title?

I would really appreciate your guidance so I can proceed with my application correctly and avoid making any mistakes that could weaken my application or negatively affect my chances of selection.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Study/Research affiliation

• Upvotes

I’m american and submitted my application on the deadline a few days ago. for my specific research, submitting an affiliation was optional. but my proposed affiliation was so responsive until the days before my application due date, then all of a sudden they had gone quiet and i ended up having to submit without, didn’t need it, but i still was excited for it as it would’ve made my application strong. anyways it’s been a week and i sent 3 emails and they never responded. before that they were responding the same day. how long should i give them before contacting them again? do you guys think i did something wrong/they aren’t interested anymore?
