Can a Fellow remain in their placement after the Fellowship year?
The Fellowship year concludes on August 31st. The purpose of the program is to provide insight into the workings of the Federal government so that Fellows can return to their communities to lead and serve. The program encourages Fellows to return to their communities and professions. There have been instances when a Fellow has been asked to continue at an agency, but not as a Fellow. A Fellow needs to work with the Program Director in this case to ensure that a “Fellow” slot is not taken that will preclude the program from placing a Fellow in that agency the following year.
