PAUL & DAISY SOROS FELLOWSHIPS FOR NEW AMERICANS OFFERS SUPPORT FOR GRADUATE STUDY

http://fconline.fdncenter.org/pnd/1753/soros Deadline: November 1, 2005

The purpose of the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans (http://www.pdsoros.org/) is to provide opportunities for continuing generations of able and accomplished New Americans to achieve leadership in their chosen fields. To that end, the program provides support for graduate study in a wide variety of fields. Under the terms of the program, a "New American" is an individual who: (1) is a resident alien; i.e., holds a Green Card; or (2) has been naturalized as a U.S. citizen; or (3) is the child of two parents who are both naturalized citizens. Candidates must demonstrate the relevance of graduate education to their long-term career goals and potential in enhancing their contributions to society. A fellow may study at any accredited graduate program in the U.S., and may pursue a graduate degree in any professional field (e.g., engineering, medicine, law, social work, etc.) or scholarly discipline in the arts, humanities, social sciences, and sciences.
