• Develop a supportive cohort of students working together to create positive social impact.

Fellowship recipients enroll in a service-learning course on project management during the spring semester of the fellowshipAdd New On Campus Opportunity year and receive up to $1,500 to help launch their project. They also gain access to professional development funds, support from APPLES students and staff and invaluable leadership training and personal development.

Up to six team fellowships are awarded each fall for the following calendar year (January – December) with applications due in mid-October. After completing the fellowship year, teams can reapply for a second year of funding of up to $1,000.
