Amazon.com Review
Fellowships and grants are listed by a number of topic headings, including "prestige" and "study abroad," those specifically for women or minorities, and by subject, from the arts and humanities to engineering, politics, business, and the sciences. For each, the guide tells the purpose of the fellowship or grant, the criteria used to award it, the financial-award amount, and whether there's a deadline. Some pursuits are as easy to accomplish by the seat of your pants as with diligent preparation, and others need serious time and planning. Applying for grants and fellowships needs serious time and planning. As successful students relate, the judges know the difference between the applicant who thinks it would be cool to hang out in a foreign place for a few months with cash in the bank and the one who has a valid quest and has done the preliminary research. In this venture, the better you prepare, the better your chances will be. --Stephanie Gold
