Do I qualify for the Public Policy Fellowship Program if I received an Advanced Degree by the start of the program?
If you have received an advanced Degree (Master's, PHD, MD, JD) by the start of the Public Policy Fellowship, then unfortunately, you do not qualify. With your advanced degree, you are over-qualified for the Public Policy Fellowship, as all the participants in the program will only have received their Bachelor's Degree. We encourage you to apply to the Graduate and Young Professional Fellowship (GYP) Program so you can be amongst participants of similar caliber.
In the GYP Fellowship, you will have a similar experience as the Public Policy Fellowship, only as you are more advanced in your professional career, you have a few more requirements to fulfill, such as develop a Policy roundtable and produce a researched paper on a policy issue.
