AAUW fellowship program for women in the United States

Funding: $6,000–$30,000
Opens: August 1
Deadline: November 1

The American Fellowship program began in 1888, a time when women were discouraged from pursuing an education. It is AAUW’s largest fellowship program and the oldest non-institutional source of graduate funding for women in the United States.

AAUW American Fellowships support women scholars who are pursuing full-time study to complete dissertations, conducting postdoctoral research full time, or preparing research for publication for eight consecutive weeks. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Candidates are evaluated on the basis of scholarly excellence; quality and originality of project design; and active commitment to helping women and girls through service in their communities, professions, or fields of research.

There are three types of American Fellowship opportunities:

DISSERTATION FELLOWSHIPS

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH LEAVE FELLOWSHIPS

SHORT-TERM RESEARCH PUBLICATION GRANTS
