Our approach
The Office of Scholar Development & Fellowship Advising is focused on the value of the reflection and personal, professional, and scholarly development that can result from thoughtful engagement with the process of applying for competitive awards. With this in mind, we work with students to articulate their goals, values, and priorities along with their personal narrative.
What we can do
Advise students about eligibility rules and requirements.
Explain application processes and cycles.
Help students understand award “fit” and consider whether an opportunity is a good match for their goals and interests.
What we cannot do
Find a fellowship for every student and circumstance.
Change eligibility rules or timelines.
Help with emergency/immediate need funding.
