2023-2024 Application Cycle

The Pearson Fellowship Committee invites applications from undergraduate students for the 2024-2025 Lionel Pearson Fellowship, which seeks to contribute to the continuing education of American- and Canadian-trained classicists by providing for a year of graduate study at an English or Scottish university. The competition is open to any outstanding candidate with a B.A. in Greek, Latin, Classics, or closely related fields at any American or Canadian college or university. This cycle is open to students who either will complete their undergraduate studies during the 2023-2024 academic year or have completed their undergraduate studies during the 2022-2023 academic year. The SCS encourages applications from groups traditionally under-represented in the field of classical studies.

For this year's fellowship application, any eligible undergraduate studying in the US or Canada may apply directly to the Pearson Fellowship Committee. We are not asking institutions to nominate students this year, and there is no limit to the number of students who may apply from any single institution.

The deadline for applications is 11:59pm Eastern Time on November 6, 2023.

For more information about the fellowship and complete application guidelines, see the Awards & Fellowships page.
