Application Process and Timelines

The timeline below shows the application deadlines for the national fellowships that require campus nomination.

Opportunities are listed by campus deadline, i.e., the date by which you must submit all required materials to the Assistant Director of Fellowships. The campus committee will then review applications, interview candidates, and select the most compelling applicants for the national competition. Nominees will usually work with the Assistant Director of Fellowships and/or faculty advisors to revise their materials before the national deadline.

The number of nominations varies by program; some programs allow only one nominee per institution, while others, like the Fulbright, allow institutions to nominate all qualified candidates. 

Students and alumni interested in applying for any of the opportunities listed below should contact Fellowships several months in advance and complete a statement of interest in our Via application system. The preferred deadline to express interest has been postponed to May 31, 2019. This timeline ensures that you can receive guidance and feedback.

Remember that we are here to support you at every stage of the application process! If you have questions, please schedule an advising appointment on our calendar.
