Do I need to have the potential to win a Nobel Prize in order to get a Fulbright Schoolarship?

I am currently studying software engineering in Nicaragua and I would like to get a scholarship to get a PhD or masters in the field most related to Software engineering, But as I read through the history and requirements I see that the people they pick normally win Nobel prizes, I dont know how accurate this is.. So I really dont know I mean I do well in my classes on average I get 87% academic performance, which is in my opinion pretty sluggish but I would say above average.

Now im not saying im a genius or anything, hence the asking of this question I dont think I have the potential to win a Nobel Prize I dont know if theres one for Computer Science, but if anyone could give me an insight or if anyone has experience with the fulbright program I would deeply appreciate it if you shared some information, thanks

    Yes you do and keep up the good work. The harder you work the better the rewards. The fulbright program is OK but there are a lot better things you could be doing. Talk to the one of your university professors to direct you on the right course.
