Adviser Appointments

One-on-one appointments with Fellowship Programs advisers are available throughout the calendar year. Appointments are 30 minutes in length, and are available remotely (Zoom or Skype) or in-person upon request. Advisers can help you plan fellowship experiences and identify awards to pursue, for both Yale fellowships offered through this office and external (non-Yale) awards. Advisers can also discuss competition timelines and application strategies. While each adviser specializes in certain awards, you may schedule a meeting with any adviser if you have not yet identified a specific award you would like to pursue. When selecting an appointment type, please specify phone or video and your adviser will contact you with the relevant information ahead of your appointment time.
