CGS does not offer any financial assistance for graduate students. We have, however, prepared this list of graduate fellowship opportunities for those entering graduate programs. It is by no means comprehensive, but it is provided to give basic information about some of the fellowships that might be available for graduate study.
There are many other sources of fellowships. Some are regional. Others are local. Community organizations like Rotary, Altrusa, Kiwanis, and the Optimist Club may also have very organized graduate scholarships for students from their communities. Graduate fellowships are frequently offered by college honor societies, fraternities, and sororities. Contact the national offices of organizations to which you belong to find out if you are eligible. Or discuss possibilities with a student affairs professional on your campus (dean of students, student activities director, or their staff members).
Deadlines for fellowships are as different as the number of fellowships. Usually, however, they occur early each calendar year, so the application process often is in full swing by late summer or early fall. The competition for fellowship money is brisk, making for hard, fast deadlines. You will need to contact funders directly to create your own calendar of deadlines.
