Fellowships

Fellowships are one of the best ways to fund your graduate education. UC Santa Cruz Division of Graduate Studies encourages all graduate students to apply for fellowships.

Fellowships provide financial support for graduate students to enhance their professional development and develop into independent scholars with their own unique research agendas. Fellowships can provide mentored training experiences, fund independent research, support international travel, cover educational and living expenses, and much more. Fellowships vary in amount and support time, ranging from a couple of months to years; some awards are one-time and others are multi-year or eligible for renewal.

All current and prospective graduate students should consider applying for fellowships. You can apply for fellowships even before you are admitted to a graduate program.
