Applications are accepted at any time. For a decision by late November please apply by October 12th. Visit www.scholarrescuefund.org for more details.
How The Scholar Rescue Fund Works:
Fellowships are awarded for visiting academic positions ranging from 3 months to 1 calendar year. Awards are issued for up to US $25,000, plus individual health coverage.
Fellowships are disbursed through host academic institutions for direct support of scholar-grantees. In most cases, host campuses are asked to match the SRF fellowship award by providing partial salary/stipend support and/or housing, material support for researching/publications, and other in-kind assistance.
SRF Iraq Project
In 2007 SRF launched the Iraq Project in response to the crisis of higher education throughout the country. If you are an Iraqi scholar seeking assistance or a university interested in hosting an SRF Iraqi scholar please contact SRFIRAQ@iie.org or visit www.scholarrescuefund.org/iraq.
