"The Publius Fellowship is boot camp for the conservative brain. I've never before learned so much that is so important in so little time."

—Kyle Peterson, Publius '11

 

 

Note: We frequently receive applicants for one fellowship who would be better served applying for another fellowship. Publius applicants should be near the beginning of a career in politics, journalism, academia, or related fields. Lincoln Fellows, though in similar fields, are usually drawn from those in more senior-level positions who have at least 5-10 years of experience in their chosen field.

Our John Marshall Fellowship is uniquely intended for lawyers and legal scholars, especially those intending to serve in federal clerkships or join the legal academy. Young associates who take an interest in Constitutional law are also good candidates for the program.
