About Us
The Fellowships and Grants team within the Career and Community Engagement Center works closely with Whitman students and alumni in their candidacy for national scholarships, fellowships and grants.
Each year Whitman students earn generous awards for graduate study, research, teaching, public service, and independent projects in the U.S. and abroad. Successful applicants typically excel in three areas: academic achievement, leadership, and community engagement/service.
Candidates are advised to explore opportunities that best match their interests, experience, and long-term goals, and to work well in advance of submission deadlines. Competition for merit-based fellowships, scholarships, and grants is keen. Applications require careful thought and considerable preparation.
