It does apply to everybody. The more demand there is for the undergrad subjects you have your bachelors degree in the greater your chance to get a Teaching Fellowship.
You do need to be accepted for the Graduate School in order to be considered for a GTF
The state Schools seem to be the most likely to have openings. Apply at the school of your choice. Overseas degrees are usually accepted. There are a few exceptions. It is difficult for anybody to find any schools that will accept credits from some of the schools in the Bahamas.
Here are the current openings at University of Oregon, I just used this for an example.

Remember applying for a GTF is very much like applying for a job and many benefits are negotiable with the school.
