James Madison Graduate Fellowship

The James Madison Graduate Fellowship offers graduate school funding for aspiring secondary school teachers of the American Constitution. Fellowship applicants must be applying for a master's degree program (MA, MAT, or MEd) at an accredited US university, and the degree must include substantial coursework on the American Constitution. The Fellowship provides a maximum of $24,000 over the course of the degree program for academic fees. Graduate Fellows then go on to teach American history, government, or civics relating to the Constitution to secondary students for one year per year of funding received.
