Williams E. Simon Fellowship for Noble Purpose

The Intercollegiate Studies Institute’s Weaver Fellowship is a prestigious award that supports graduate students who are committed to the principles of the Western intellectual tradition and the study of humane letters. Weaver Fellows are selected based on their academic achievements and commitment to teaching at the college level in the humanities or social sciences. By fostering the development of future educators and scholars, the Weaver Fellowship ensures that the values of a free and virtuous society are upheld and advanced in academia. Each year, the program awards up to 15 graduate fellowships to outstanding students looking for graduate school funding. The fellowships range from $5,000 to $15,000. (These amounts may be subject to change; check with its official website).
