Every year, the McColl Fellowship in Southern Studies offers financial support to an outstanding first-year graduate student at UNC-CH, in a field related to the study of the American South. This one-year award is nonrenewable, but requires no teaching or research assistance activities from its recipients. The Fellowship provides an annual stipend, resident tuition, fees, and health insurance. Non-resident tuition costs must be shared with the sponsoring department. Nominations for the McColl Fellowship are made by departments; prospective students cannot apply directly for this fellowship but may indicate their interest when applying for admission. The annual deadline for application to the Graduate School is January 1.
