Belgium

This week, the Belgian Monarchy announced that the future queen of the small European nation will enroll at the university’s Kennedy School of Government with a Fulbright scholarship from the US State Department.

“She recently passed the entrance tests for the Master in Public Policy,” read a statement on the monarchy’s website. “This two-year master’s degree will complement her university education after her bachelor's degree in history and politics at the University of Oxford . The Princess was also selected for an Honorary Award from the Fulbright Program, the US State Department’s international educational exchange program.

Though she left the academy after a year, she continued to return for summer training camps and was sworn in as an officer last September. According to the Fulbright commission for Belgium and Luxembourg, 25 students are given grants for graduate study in the United States annually. The program, which began funding students from Belgium in 1948, aims to foster cooperation and academic exchange.
