Application Deadline: October 26, 2022
In 2023,ย Princeton in Africaย is expanding its model to pilot Nexus!ย Princeton in Africa Nexusย will pair 5 Africa Fellows educated and resident on the African continent with 5ย Fellows educated at U.S. accredited institutions in the same fellowship host organizations on the African continent for a co-fellow exchange of skills, knowledge, leadership, and technical expertise. The Nexus is an addition to PiAfโs signature fellowship program tailored for young leaders educated at a U.S.-accredited institution!
The program is designed to enrich our Fellowsโ experience and professional growth on the African continent and bring young professionals educated in African institutions into our community of nearly 700 alumni spanning all over the world.
How do I become a Nexus Fellow?
In order to be eligible for the Nexus program, applicants must:
- Have citizenship in an African Country and have current residency in an African country (applicants with dual U.S. citizenship will not be considered).
- Have an Undergraduate Degree or a Masterโs degree (or equivalent), or a Ph.D. from an African University.
The eligibility requirements of the general PiAf fellowship program are:
- PiAf general applicants must be recent graduates or graduating seniors of a U.S.-accredited 4-year college or university. Note, most universities outside of the U.S. are not U.S.-accredited; if you graduate from a non-U.S. accredited university, then obtain an additional degree from a U.S.-accredited university, you would be eligible to apply for Princeton in Africa. All applicants must have a 4-year undergraduate degree or a graduate degree from a U.S.-accredited university.
- If a candidate interested in Nexusย onlyย has a degree from an accredited 4-year U.S. college or universityย they would be considered for the general fellowship program.
