General Application Instructions

Applications for all Marcus Pre-Doctoral Fellowship tracks can be submitted to our online application portal – Apply Here. All materials must be submitted electronically and received by Monday, January 6, 2025 at 11:59 PM EST.

Application Requirements

A complete application requires the following:

A resume or CV, highlighting relevant experience
A two-page personal statement containing biographic material, relevant experience, and career goals (single- or double-spaced)
Two letters of recommendation that speak directly to your potential
Transcripts for each post-secondary institution you have attended, present school included

You can upload .pdf, .doc, .docx, .txt, .rtf, .jpg, and .tif files to our online application portal.

Transcripts

Your transcripts must be issued by the registrar’s office, but unofficial copies issued to you are acceptable. If you wish to upload an electronic transcript issued by your registrar's office, please be sure we can open that document without passwords or other security information. Please do not mail paper transcripts with your application. If you are admitted to the fellowship program and accept, then you will need to submit official copies (sealed or sent to us directly from a university registrar). Transcripts must be in English, or be accompanied by notarized translations.

Letters of Recommendation

Contact your recommenders well ahead of time to make sure they are aware of and can meet your application deadline. Your application is not complete until the letters have been submitted. You will request the letters as part of the online application process, and recommenders can submit them online. You can send requests for letters of recommendations before you submit the final application.
