Make an Appointment

Drop-In Hours (when classes are in session)

Drop-in hours are held during the semester every Friday from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. when class is in session. These 10 minute conversations are intended to answer brief questions and connect students with other available resources. This is a great place to get started, narrow your search, and learn about the basics of applying for awards. 

Come talk with us

One-on-one appointments with Fellowship Programs advisers are available throughout the calendar year. Appointments are 30 minutes in length, and are available by phone, video, and in person. 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.
