The annual competition for Graduate Fellowships begins with the application
period which opens each year in August at which time a deadline consistent
with those of NSF and other fellowship granting organizations will be
posted. Only those applications which are complete, with all supporting
materials and documents provided (including Reference Reports) by the
posted deadline will be assured of full consideration by the Foundation.
Untimely or incompletely-submitted applications will be entertained only
at the Foundation's discretion and convenience.
Each year's competition concludes at the end of the following March, at which time the Foundation's Board of Directors determines the most
highly qualified Fellowship applicants and the number of new Fellowships which available resources will be able to support.
All Fellowship applicants are notified by mail of the Foundation's action on their application on or before April 1 of each year.
The Hertz Foundation Fellowship application will be available for the academic year 2011-2012 by August 16, 2010.
You can create a log in and password to view last year’s application and access the new application when it becomes available, but please DO NOT enter any additional information on last year’s 2010-2011 application.
It will not be ported over to the new application when it becomes available.
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION is October 29, 2010 - 11:59 pm, Pacific Time.
Reference Reports must be received by the Foundation by Monday, November 1, 2010.
