Our approach to selecting Fellows is grounded in our commitment to ensuring student success. Fellows are tasked with a challenging job: ensuring their students experience the emotional and intellectual growth that will positively impact their life prospects, and that schools and communities are better equipped to support children. Each applicant is assessed on the following competencies that we believe are predictive of success as a Fellow.

UNiversity Backgrounds
The beauty of this model is that it makes the learning experience of Fellows
consistent in terms of skills and competencies. So whether you are in Pakistan, a classroom at Harvard or at State Superintendent's office in DC, you can always contribute to the conversation on education inequity.
