The FAIP program has ended but may be available again in future years as funding becomes available. Once the program is available, it will be posted to this web page.
How it works: The Graduate School will pay you $500 for applying to an allowable fellowship, as long as you are eligible for that fellowship, and enroll in FAIP before you apply. You may receive up to two $500 payments for two fellowships. If you are awarded one of them, the Graduate School will pay you $1,500.
PLEASE NOTE: Please do your own research to verify you are eligible before submitting an application. The Graduate School will not verify your eligibility until after the submission deadline has passed.

How to find fellowships:
