Six graduate students in the College were offered Graduate School fellowships for the 2024-25 academic year.

The fellowships are offered through a highly selective process. The Distinguished Graduate Student Fellowship provides a stipend of $15,500 in addition to full tuition coverage, low-cost health benefits, and a $1,000 travel award. The same benefits apply to the Distinguished Dissertation Graduate School Fellowships except the stipend is $17,000. The AOP Fellowship stipend is $18,000 for recipients in a doctoral-level program.

Well done!
