By visiting the Fellowships Office site, you are taking an important step in preparing for your future.

Visit the Fellowships Office as soon as possible to schedule an appointment and learn more! Email us or call us at 573-884-4661 to set up an appointment.

Our office can help you explore opportunities to fund further study and apply for external, nationally competitive scholarships, grants, and similar funding, generically known as “fellowships.”

We hope that you will find the information here helpful; however, it is no substitute for a personal conversation. Once you have done some preliminary research, please make an appointment to visit us in 204 Lowry Hall: email us - fellowships@missouri.edu - or call 573-884-4661 or 573-882-0227.

Before you make an appointment, please download and complete the personal profile sheet. This profile helps us to better get to know what your future goals and plans are and which fellowships might be right for you.
