Overview
AUC will accept Spring 2027 graduate fellowship applications from 7 October to 2 November 2026 for eligible degree-seeking graduate students, with awards based on merit and financial need.
Complete fellowship details
AUC offers institutional and sponsored graduate fellowships. For Spring 2027, the fellowship application window runs from 7 October through 2 November 2026. Awards may provide full tuition coverage for nine graduate credits per semester or partial tuition coverage of one to eight credits, depending on the fellowship. International students receiving fellowship support may receive a housing allowance if they are full-time students. Institutional fellowships are usually awarded for one semester and require renewal applications unless a specific fellowship states otherwise.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must have an AUC graduate admission application on record and must submit the graduate fellowship application online. Priority is given to applicants with excellent academic standing who are fully admitted to a graduate program. Graduate diploma-seeking, MEng, MComp and non-degree students are not eligible for institutional fellowships. Continuing graduate students generally need a GPA of 3.2 or higher unless a specific fellowship states otherwise.
Tips for this fellowship
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Submit the graduate admission application at least two weeks before the fellowship deadline.
- Allow about seven working days after receiving an AUC student ID before starting the fellowship web application.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
Verification notes
Verified on AUC's fellowship page updated 25 August 2026. AUC states the Spring 2027 application window is 7 October–2 November 2026 and gives no closing clock time, so deadline_date is used. Coverage varies by fellowship; no fixed stipend or housing amount is claimed.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
