What is a Fellowship?

Fellowships are prizes that grad students and postgrad scholars compete for. They provide opportunities for students to pursue their advanced academic goals and can help pay for their education. Most fellowships typically last for at least a year, if not longer. 

To get started looking for fellowships that fit your future goals, we encourage students to check out ProFellow. ProFellow is an online database and excellent resource for fellowship pursuits, both domestic and abroad.
