Five freshman Leadership Fellows receive scholarships valued at $3,500, which are renewable annually as long as the student remains a Fellow in good standing. This amount is in addition to any Presidential Scholarship received.
Fellows explore public responsibility and leadership in a special Global Experience seminar during the freshman year. Sophomore Fellows continue the academic component with Group Dynamics and Leadership, followed by a unique Winter Term course focusing on leadership in action that includes a travel experience. In the third year, Fellows complete their leadership studies by choosing Ethics and Decision Making or the Psychology of Leadership. Fellows also have the option of completing a minor in leadership studies.
All Leadership Fellows receive a $1,000 grant to support research, service, leadership, an internship or an international experience.
