So can foreigners apply for the NSF as well? What about people who are not US citizens but went to college in the US? I am pretty confused about their website.

From the NSF-GRFP Program Announcement:


"Applicants must be United States citizens or nationals, or permanent resident aliens of the United States.

The term "national" designates a native resident of a commonwealth or territory of the United States, such as American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, or the Northern Mariana Islands. It does not refer to a citizen of another country who has applied for U.S. citizenship.
