ANS Members, please log in to watch this webinar.
The ANS Student Sections Committee invites you to join us for a workshop on graduate fellowships. We will open with a few general tips and tricks for writing a great application. Then, we will give an overview of at least eight fellowships you can apply for. We will also have administrators for a few of these fellowships attend and speak about their specific programs.
We will wrap up the session by going over ANS scholarships, helping you select the ones that are right for you, and showing you how to start a new application.
This is a workshop, so come prepared to ask questions and take notes!
