The Monticello College Foundation Fellowship for Women supports a pre-tenure woman whose work points to a future of scholarly productivity and who would benefit significantly from being in residence at the Newberry. Preference will be given to projects concerned with the study of women. Those who can apply are those who will have a PhD (or equivalent terminal degree) by the application deadline. A project abstract describing the significance of the project and a project description elaborating on the abstract and referencing specific published scholarship that the project will engage with are required. The description should also explain the relevance of certain Newberry collection materials to the project and include a plan of work. Letters of Recommendation, in English, that speak to the scholarly contribution of the proposed project, the value of a Newberry residency to the applicant, and the qualifications of the applicant. Long-term fellowships also require three letters of recommendation. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
