- Eligibility requirements apply at the time of application. * Applicants must be U.S. citizens; permanent resident status is not sufficient. * Academic staff applicants must have earned a Ph.D. or an equivalent professional degree and must hold the rank of professor or associate professor in their home institutions. For professionals and artists
- recognized professional standing and substantial professional accomplishments are required. * Individuals who have received two Fulbright basic fellowships are not eligible to apply.

In addition: (1) two years must pass from the date of completion of a previous Fulbright short-term grant to the commencement of a Fulbright-Israel Senior Scholar Fellowship; and (2) five years must pass from the date of completion of a basic fellowship until the commencement of a Senior Scholar Fellowship.
