Swarthmore Fellowships
The Swarthmore Fellowships provide grants of $5,000 or more to fund graduate degrees from accredited institutions in the US and abroad. They are open to any Swarthmore College graduating senior or alum. We support professional and academic degrees pursued in the US or abroad. US citizenship is NOT required.
The application to fund the 2025-26 academic year is now available.
- Please use this link to download an application form and for further instructions.
- No interview is required.
- Applications are due April 20th and final decisions and notifications are made just before Commencement.
If you are not applying to graduate school this year, then please keep the Swarthmore Fellowships in mind should you apply in the future. They are open to any alum of Swarthmore College no matter their age or number of years since graduation. (However you can only use one Swarthmore Fellowship in your lifetime.) New applications become available every spring semester.
