Comment: Liebmann Fellowships are to be awarded to doctoral students at any stage of their programs who have outstanding undergraduate records, can demonstrate financial need, and are U.S. citizens. The fellowships cover the costs of tuition and will provide a stipend of $18,000, in order that the fellow may devote full time to his or her program of study. Awards are renewable and can fund students for a maximum of three years, although fellows must request renewal funds for each subsequent year. Awards will be announced in late spring.
