Note: The Honors College is now accepting applications for the Fall '24/Spring '25 academic school year!
An Honors College Student Fellowship is a $1,500 grant given to a Commonwealth Honors student for pre-approved scholarly engagement that is overseen and guided by a mentor. Each fellowship must have a critical reading component and conclude with a 15 minute in-person presentation. The student is expected to invest about 100 hours of focused effort. A single fellowship can be spread across, but not exceed, 12 consecutive months.
The $1,500 grant is applied to a student's financial account. Typically, half of the award ($750) is disbursed at the start of the fellowship, with the second ($750) disbursed when the student satisfactorily completes their final presentation.
Please note: Students can only receive one (1) Honors College Student Fellowship.
Eligibility: Students must be in good standing with the Honors College and the University.
