These past few months have been busy ones for us, at the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, as we continue work on the highly competitive selection process for the 2012 cohort of Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellows. The Teaching Fellowship received unprecedented interest this past year with 48,000 inquiries into the program and 1500 applications submitted.
As the Early Decision deadline approaches on October 19th, we are sending this reminder that nominations for the prestigious Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowship are currently being accepted through January 10, 2012.
The nomination and application process has several important steps. First, you will need to submit your nominations (of current students or alumni) by filling out a brief online form. The nomination form may be filled out at any time before the January deadline.
The students you nominate should have a 3.0 undergraduate GPA with an undergraduate major or minor in a STEM field and a commitment to teaching.
Once you submit your nomination, they will then need to register and complete the full application with the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation by clicking the “APPLY NOW” button at the top of this template or on our website at www.wwteachingfellowship.org. (This is a secure site, where personal information will be protected.) Technical assistance will be available at Tech-Help@woodrow.org, should they have any difficulty.
Recommendation forms are provided at the end of the application. All recommendations should consist of a letter and a form, and should be completed by a faculty member who has worked directly with the student in his/her classes, on special projects, or in other situations where they can provide information on the student’s excellence, character, academic ability, and commitment to teaching. The recommendations are to be completed and submitted directly to the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation.
The completed application with responses to the two essays, a resume, test scores (where applicable), three letters of recommendation (with corresponding forms), and an official transcript should be submitted (by the student) online. Please let us know if you have questions about the application process. All nominated students will be interviewed.
We hope that this information is helpful and will allow you to effectively support your students as they prepare their applications. Should you need to contact me with questions, please do not hesitate to do so at 609-452-7007, ext 145 or via email at kovac@woodrow.org.
Sincerely,
Sylvia Kovac
