St. John’s College students take advantage of two types of fellowships. The first is college-funded fellowships for supplemental coursework and career-advancement opportunities that will prepare students for graduate school or a career. The second is national fellowship and scholarship programs such as the Fulbright, Beinecke, and Davis Projects for Peace.
The college-funded fellowships are referred to as Pathways. They provide students with a maximum of $5,000 to take courses, earn professional certificates, or attend conferences. With a Pathways Fellowship, students may enroll, for example, in pre-med courses for medical school, art classes in order to build a portfolio, or education courses to earn a license to teach in public school
There are two kinds of Pathways Fellowships: General Pathways, which fund summer programs in the United States, and Global Pathways, which fund international study. Global Pathways are only available on the Santa Fe campus. All are funded by generous St. John’s College donors. To see where students have recently completed Pathways Fellowships, please visit our careers data page.
The Pathways Fellowship page for Annapolis and the Internships and Fellowships page for Santa Fe provide more information about the Pathways program at each campus.
The second type of fellowship—national fellowship and scholarship programs—are available to all college students in the U.S. Programs like the Fulbright U.S. Student program, the Beinecke Scholarship, and the Davis Foundation Projects for Peace offer a wide variety of opportunities, including post-graduate research overseas, funding for graduate studies in the U.S., and summer projects.
The National Fellowships and Scholarships page for Annapolis and the National Scholarships page for Santa Fe provide more information about these programs.
Staff at Career Services in Annapolis and the Office of Personal and Professional Development in Santa Fe assist students throughout the application process.
