Special Presidential Fellowship
Opportunities at Rutgers (Prospective Graduate Students)

 

Several Presidential Fellowships will be made available to the most highly qualified candidates admitted to the Rutgers Graduate School.  These two-year Fellowships will offer $30,000 annual stipends and full tuition and medical fee remission for each of the two years of the fellowship, in addition to mentorship in applying for prestigious national and international fellowships.

Any candidates admitted to the Graduate Program of Literatures of English with a Presidential Fellowship will receive an additional four years of funding, for a total of six years of funding, usually in the form of a Teaching Assistantship, which also provides full remission of tuition and medical fees. The application process for these Fellowships is no different from the application for admission to the Graduate Program of Literatures in English at Rutgers. If you are interested in being considered for one of these Fellowships, be sure to have your admissions application in by December 15, 2007.

Anyone applying to the Graduate Program of Literatures in English will be considered for the Presidential Fellowship. Applications must include:

  • Application form by December 15, 2007

The following supporting documentation by January 1, 2008:

  • Personal Statement
  • Transcripts from all schools of higher education
  • Writing sample (10 to 20 pages in length)
  • Three letters of reference
  • GRE scores, both General and Subject if available

There is no separate application for the Presidential Fellowship. If you have not already applied to our program, you may apply on-line: https://www.acs.rutgers.edu/gradadmission/newApplicant.app.
