Office of Fellowships

The Office of Fellowships advises Amherst College students and alumni on competitive awards that support their personal and academic growth. Awards fund graduate study, research, cultural immersion, and other pursuits. We administer competitions for externally funded, inter/nationally competitive awards that often require institutional endorsement. We help you identify the best grant opportunities, guide you through the application process, and provide writing feedback and interview coaching. We also administer internal awards that fund graduate study or independent training in the performing arts for graduating seniors and alumni recent alumni.
