Description

The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans program honors the contributions of immigrants and children of immigrants to the United States. Each year, we invest in the graduate education of 30 New Americans - immigrants and children of immigrants - who are poised to make significant contributions to U.S. society, culture, or other academic field. Each Fellow receives up to $90,000 in financial support over one to two years, and they join a strong alumni network of inspiring immigrants and children of immigrants working in a range of professional fields.
