Guarini Fellowships Program

Guarini Fellows are graduate students who will develop programming and serve as peer advisors, mentors, communicators, and advocates. 

Fellows must have strong interpersonal, writing and oral communication skills, the ability to work as a team, and experience to serve as peer advisors, mentors, and advocates for graduate students. 

Fellows will participate in leadership events and will be recognized on the website as Guarini Fellows. Fellows will meet weekly with their Assistant Dean and other Fellows in their area of interest.

Guarini Fellowship applicants must be in good academic standing. All Fellows will be expected to continue to conduct research, fulfill all program specific responsibilities, and maintain satisfactory progress in their program for the duration of the Fellowship. Please see application for further eligibility requirements.

Both fellowship roles are expected to:

• Design unique and relevant social events and programs that appeal to diverse populations of graduate students.
• Collaborate with and support the GSC-recognized student groups in planning events and programs.
• Assist in updating the GSC Welcome Packet to support graduate students' transition to the Upper Valley.
• Collaborate with Guarini Fellows on events.
• Attend GSC meetings.

• Meet regularly with the Assistant Dean of Graduate Student Affairs.
• Assist with Guarini School events such as orientation, grad appreciation week, mental health month, and graduation.
• Other duties as assigned.

Fellows will be provided a stipend of $4,000 for the 12 months of the Fellowship over their normal stipend, and appointments will be for one-year with the option to apply for a second year. The Fellow will be expected to work 8 hours per week.
