Requirements
Applicants for NEW AID fellowships do not need to be United States citizens, but must be enrolled at an accredited graduate institution within the United States.
Fellows are strongly encouraged to report their research findings to a peer-reviewed journal. It is expected that The NEW AID Foundation will be cited in the the acknowledgements of any manuscript which is submitted for publication and that a reprint will be sent to NEW AID if this manuscript is accepted.
Furthermore, all fellows are obligated to report on their experiences within three months of their return. This report may take two forms. Fellows may submit a draft or reprint of the manuscript plus a two page report commenting on their experience including: (a) what they learned or witnessed about poverty and disease in these communities (b) what obstacles to research they encountered (c) what other grants they received and if receiving a fellowship from NEW AID was useful in securing additional funding (d) what ways this experience may shape future career goals. Alternatively, if fellows do not feel that their findings are publishable, they must write a five page report answering the above questions as well as providing a detailed account of their results and an explanation as to why you and your mentor decided not to submit these findings.
