The Truitt Family Graduate Fellowship
in Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies will provide a stipend of at least $1000 to incoming or continuing students of the CREEES MA Program. (The award may also include a non-resident tuition exemption waiver for out of state students.)
Deadline: February 1
Eligibility and Criteria: All applicants to (and current students in) CREEES’ graduate programs and dual degrees are eligible for the Truitt Family Graduate Fellowship. Awardees will be selected based on criteria which include academic merit, research ambitions, proposed trajectory in the field, and financial need.
Incoming Students: All CREEES MA applicants will be automatically considered for the fellowship based on submitted application materials. Only those who accept and enroll in the program are eligible to receive the Truitt award, which will be paid out in early fall semester in the year it is awarded.
Continuing Students: Only currently enrolled students who are continuing in the program in the next academic year are eligible to apply for and receive this fellowship. These applicants will be required to fill out application and submit a transcript and one page statement on progress in the program and academic goals, and will receive funds in early summer of the year they are awarded.
