Fellowship Advising
The Office of International Programs advises undergraduate students and alumni of Princeton University about fellowships, scholarships, and grants.
Here’s how to get started:
1. Research Fellowship Opportunities
The OIP coordinates all competitions that require institutional nomination to external programs and assists undergraduates who are seeking information regarding funding for undergraduate and postgraduate study and research.
2. Complete a Pre-Advising Form
This form (.doc) will act as a starting point for your fellowship/scholarship process. It will also provide us with information so that we may best serve your needs. Please email your completed form to your adviser before your initial meeting.
3. Make a WASS Appointment
Please note: Summer WASS appointments are available. If you are not on campus, please provide your Skype name or telephone number when scheduling your appointment.
New WASS advising appointments are posted at the end of each month. If you are unable to meet during those times, please email Christine Tizzano (or call 8-1998) with some suggested days and times that you are available. If you could be specific about the purpose of your meeting, that is often helpful.
