Start Next Year's Fellowship Applications Now: Fulbright, Truman, More

Fellowship season moves fast. The strongest Fulbright, Truman, and Marshall applications usually start taking shape months before the deadline, not weeks. Michael Gallo, a Schwarzman Scholar who has coached applicants into Fulbright grants, Luce Scholarships, and other competitive fellowships, will cover how to start now: picking the right program, lining up recommenders early, and shaping a personal statement that actually sounds like you. In 45 minutes, Michael can't review a finished essay, but he can help you build the plan that makes writing one easier: timeline, program fit, and the groundwork most applicants skip. Bring your target programs and questions about the process.
