Applications to the graduate schools of your choice are a separate process. Each school has its own entrance requirements, and you must be accepted on your own merits. It is best to apply to at least six universities or colleges concurrently. If you are a dual major and are flexible on which discipline you pursue for your graduate work, then your application is reviewed in separate groupings. If you are selected for a fellowship by one of the NPSC Member Employers, you will be advised which discipline the fellowship is being offered.
Many schools require that their graduate students perform some teaching or research assistantship.
In most cases, member universities do not cover your medical expenses. We encourage you to take advantage of the medical insurance and services available to the regular student body. We recommend that you search for suitable housing by contacting other NPSC fellows and either the employer or the university's housing office. You are responsible for paying for your housing from your summer earnings or stipend. Yes, you are still eligible to apply.
