The Office of Fellowships offers services to help students gain a competitive edge in the application process and grow personally from the experience of applying to a nationally competitive fellowship. Typically, fellowships fund study, research, or teaching in the U.S. or abroad. These awards are competitive and are awarded to students who are energetic and high-achieving, with the potential to make significant contributions for the public good. Additional assets include: high GPAs; service-learning courses or meaningful volunteer experience; honors courses (and other rigorous coursework); research experience; studying abroad; leadership and participation in campus and community activities.

Nationally competitive fellowships

The Office of Fellowships helps undergraduates and recent graduates apply for national fellowships that provide valuable funding, connections and prestige.

When you work with us, we help you articulate your ambitions for yourself and create persuasive fellowship applications. Even if you do not win, this experience will challenge you to define who you want to become and how to achieve your potential. We devote special care to assisting students who face barriers that could discourage them from applying. Let the Office of Fellowships help you build on your success at Wayne.
