Ford Foundation Fellowship applicants must produce 3-5 different statements to apply! The number of needed statements makes this application much more complex than the average fellowship. And with so much on the line to address the application's many review criteria, you need to know exactly what goes into these different statements and what evaluators look for in a successful statement.

This Ford Foundation Fellowship Success Series workshop will break down the various statements by not only explaining what evaluators look for but also providing you with a framework to write these statements. While we cannot tell you what to write about, we can inform you on how to write about your work. Let us walk you through this style of writing and prepare you to craft a winning set of statements.
