Fellowship Advising Resources
Applying for a prestigious national or international fellowship can be a lengthy, challenging process. Successful applicants often spend multiple semesters drafting and receiving feedback on components of the fellowship application. Our office has an experienced staff ready to help you:
"The completion of this fellowship application involved the guidance from Dr. Isiah Warner, the Office of Fellowship Advising at the LSU Honors College, members of Dr. Tom Rapoport's lab at Harvard Medical School, and members of Dr. Lawrence Rudel's lab at Wake Forest University School of Medicine. Without any of these groups of people, this honor may never have come to me nor to LSU."
