Clifford D. Clark Fellowship

Description

The Clifford D. Clark Fellowship is open to incoming, first-year graduate students at Binghamton University who have demonstrated strong academic achievement and overcome a significant disadvantage or other impediment to success in higher education. Applicants should also demonstrate a commitment to contributing to the diversity of the student body by facilitating and enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in their academic programs and campus activities. Preference will be given to candidates who are from low-income backgrounds (e.g., Pell-eligible as undergraduates), were first-generation college students, have overcome adversity, are AmeriCorps alumni, and/ or are veterans. Although financial need is not a requirement for program eligibility, applicants may utilize economic disadvantage as a basis for eligibility.
