Undergraduate Fellowships

Applications are accepted March and April for six residential fellowships. Undergraduate fellows hold carrels at the JHI, and research and write an Independent Study on a topic of their own choice under supervision by one of the year’s 12-month Faculty Research Fellows. A 1.0 FCE course credit for this Independent Study is awarded by each fellow’s home unit. Fellows also receive funding and travel support.

NOTE: The 2024-25 Undergraduate Fellowship Call for Applications is now open until Thursday, April 25, 2024 at 4:00pm. Check out our announcement that provides detailed information and a link to the application form.
