How are continuing Javits fellowships awarded?
Each year the institution must complete the Report of Financial Need and Certification to request fellowship funds for continuing fellows. This form requests information on each fellow regarding his or her financial need, stipend request for the next academic year (depending on need), institutional payment, unused funds in the current year, acceptable academic progress, etc. As a condition of their fellowships, continuing fellows must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) every year and submit the results to their universities, which use this information to determine each fellow’s financial need. Funds for fellows are sent in the form of a grant to the institution.
