These fellowships are hosted at refuges or regional offices nationwide, giving you a chance to apply your academic hustle in real-world settings!
These FWS fellowships are legit—fully paid with benefits, travel, and housing all covered, so you can focus on the good stuff! They usually run for 6 months (26 weeks), but there's a chance to stretch it up to 3 years.
