What is a graduate fellow?

A Graduate Fellow is a student who has been awarded a fellowship, usually at the master's or doctoral level, to support their advanced study or research. Fellowships are typically merit-based and can provide financial support, such as tuition assistance, stipends, or research funding. Graduate Fellows often participate in specific academic or research projects, and may have additional responsibilities such as teaching or presenting their work. The goal of a fellowship is to enable students to focus on their studies or research without the burden of financial constraints.
