Select Fellowships

Each year, approximately 60 to 70 of Notre Dame’s top incoming students—among an entering class of approximately 470—are awarded one of the Graduate School’s select fellowships. While criteria for each fellowship differ, all recognize outstanding performance in undergraduate studies as well as promise in graduate studies and professional life.

All full-time students who are accepted into graduate programs at Notre Dame will be considered automatically for these fellowships. Selection of fellows is competitive and based on nominations from the admitting departments.
