Welcome to the application submission page for fellowships beginning Summer 2024. We’re looking forward to reviewing your materials and getting to know you through your candidacy.
Please ensure that you have ALL components of your application ready and accessible before you begin. You will NOT be able to save and continue later. Your application consists of materials submitted directly by you, plus the name(s) of the person(s) who will submit, separately, a recommendation on your behalf.
A complete application includes the following, submitted by you:
- Online Application Form* (accessed below), which allows you to attach…
- Current CV or resume – PDF only
- Unofficial transcript(s) – PDF only
- Academic writing sample (1 only please) – PDF only
- OPTIONAL but encouraged: Personal statement of no more than 250 words – PDF only. This supplement should be used to provide additional context that you deem critical for a fair evaluation of your application and that would not be covered under your response to our “motivation for applying” question, per the note below.
* Note: The application form asks for a brief (single paragraph) explanation of your motivation for applying to the PhDEI, and for the name of each person writing a recommendation (see requirement just below). Please have these accessible before you launch the form.
Additionally, you are required to obtain:
- Recommendation(s) – at least one letter of recommendation is required
Recommendations must be on official letterhead and sent directly to us by the recommender, using the following email address: apply “at” phdexcellence “dot” org
For ease of compiling your application, it is helpful to have your name included in the subject heading of the recommender’s email. Please plan ahead and give your recommenders adequate time to write/submit a letter on or before our application deadline.
The deadline for applications for 2024 Fellowships has passed.
