Current UCLA graduate students with a demonstrated interest in ethnic studies are
eligible to apply for graduate/predoctoral fellowships under the auspices of the
Institute of American Cultures and the four ethnic studies centers to aid in completion
of a thesis or dissertation. The fellowship consists of a $18,500 stipend and all
in-state fees. Restrictions apply regarding acceptance of supplemental employment and/or
other awards during the fellowship year. On occasion, Centers have chosen to divide the
graduate fellowship between two or among three students.
Awards are for one academic year. Eligibility requirements: Open to continuing graduate
students from all departments with a demonstrated interest in African American, American
Indian, Asian American, or Chicana/o studies. Applications are due by 6:00 p.m. on April
24. 2009 for Asian American Studies. The original and eight copies of the application are
required.
