Early-career fellowships are awarded to candidates who do not have a permanent academic position but do have a proven track record. To be eligible, applicants need a doctorate in an academic discipline or a master’s degree from an art school, in cases where the institution does not award doctoral degrees. The degree must have been obtained no longer than five years prior to the start of the fellowship. The reference dates for calculating the eligibility window are the certified date of the successful PhD defense and the start date of the fellowship on September 1, 2025. For this five-year threshold, we consider your “academic age,” as calculated in the application platform. When calculating the five-year threshold, care work, career breaks, or part-time employment and other factors will be considered. We ask you to provide information about your employment history and supporting documentation if you want to make a claim against the five-year threshold.

Official confirmation of the completed doctoral degree from the respective university, or doctoral or master’s degree from an art school (if the institution does not award doctoral degrees) is required and must be submitted with the application. If you do not have a certificate by the time of application, please submit either a transcript of record that confirms that you received a doctorate or master’s degree from an art school, or a letter by your advisor or department chair confirming that you will have your doctorate or master’s degree from an art school in hand by June 2025.
