Fellowships for Underrepresented Students

Generally, the best sources of financial support are the graduate schools and programs to which a student is applying. The Graduate School, however, suggests that students apply to one or more of these prestigious national fellowship programs appropriate to the student's discipline. The following major fellowships are available to underrepresented groups:

American Indian Graduate Center
Ford Foundation Doctoral Fellowships for Minorities
Gates Millennium Scholars
Harriett G. Jenkins Predoctoral Fellowship Program
National Consortium for Graduate Degrees For Minorities in Engineering and Science (GEM)
