Web sites put up by the individual fellowships have the most up-to-date information. Be sure to check
Pomona’s internal deadline dates if the fellowship
requires nomination by the College.
Consult professors and others with expertise in your area
of interest. If interested in graduate work abroad, find out
who has studied or lived in the places you want to go.
Selected external links appear
below. Use them with care--information
may be outdated, and some awards may be available only at
specified institutions. Ignore other institutions' internal deadlines; check with
the GFO for Pomona's deadlines if the fellowship requires
College nomination.
