External Fellowships

Many foundations and corporations grant full or partial fellowships to graduate students to assist in their education. Students may apply for some of these fellowships directly to the concerned corporations or foundations before admission itself . They should notify the University/School to which they are applying about their application for financial assistance from external resources (if any). Here is a list of corporations/foundation offering external support (some are applicable for international students also).
