The National Science Foundation’s Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) provides selected fellows with three years of funding, including a living stipend and tuition funds, to support the research phase of their doctoral degree in STEM, social sciences, or STEM education. The current application cycle is open to US citizens and permanent residents planning to begin a research-focused graduate program in Fall 2026, or who will be in the 1st or 2nd year of a PhD program in Fall 2025.

This information session will cover the necessary application components, how to plan for a strong application, application resources available at Drexel, and some application tips from recent GRFP Fellows.
