Candidates must be less than 30 years of age, be a "Green Card" holder, a naturalized citizen, or the child of two naturalized citizens,and complete a bachelor's degree. The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans ( http://www.pdsoros.org/ ) provides opportunities for continuing generations of able and accomplished New Americans to achieve leadership in their chosen fields. The fellowships are grants for up to two years of graduate study in the United States. *A "New American" is an individual who 1) is a resident alien (i.e., holds a Green Card); or 2) has been naturalized as a U.S. citizen; or 3) is the child of two parents who are both naturalized citizens.* The applicant must either have a bachelor's degree or be in her/his final year of undergraduate study. Those who have a bachelor's degree may already be pursuing graduate study and may receive fellowship support to continue that study. Individuals who are in the third, or subsequent, year of study in the same graduate program are not, however, eligible for the competition. Students who have received a master's degree in a program and are studying for a doctoral degree in the same program are considered to have been in the same program from the time they began their work on their master's degree.
