Scholarships & Fellowships
Prestigious fellowships and scholarship, like the Rhodes or Fulbright Scholarships, are available for graduate school. There are also scholarships available for undergraduate education. Not only are students expected to have high GPA's but also an impressive portfolio of leadership experiences, among other things. The key to winning such a scholarship is:
- Learning about the scholarship early and preparing for it.
- Giving yourself enough time to complete a rather long application with the help of a professor or an advisor.
