For Prospective International Fellows
Multi Nation, Single Region, and Common Interest programs offer a unique opportunity for emerging leaders aged 32-45 with a record of achievement and high potential for further advancements to broaden their horizons through the exchange of perspectives with U.S. leaders.
Eisenhower Fellowships are awarded for a specific seven-week period and cannot be postponed. The programs typically involve visits to 8-10 cities and 50-70 individual appointments. Fellows from various countries join together for seminars at the beginning and end of each program, laying the foundation for life-long international friendships.
Candidates are identified by in-country Nominating Committees
composed of Alumni Eisenhower Fellows and other eminent citizens. A Philadelphia-based
committee makes final selections. Spouses who are fluent in English are
invited to accompany Fellows and participate. Children are not permitted
to accompany the Fellow.
APPLYING FOR AN INTERNATIONAL FELLOWSHIP
Applications for
international programs are made directly to the Nominating Committee in each
participating country. Applications are not accepted in Philadelphia.
To request contact information for the Nominating Committee in your country, e-mail international@eisenhowerfellowships.org. To view selection criteria, click here.
